Re: 70 Buick/Motion GSX
 

That's amazing! When I got a lead on that car over 2 yrs ago. I dicussed it at length with the owner @ McIntosh Performance. He stated that it only had 2 Motion badges, so I guess Joel has a stash of work orders https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...s/rolleyes.gif. Got any pre resto pics from where it sat @ McIntosh?

Re: 70 Buick/Motion GSX
 

Actually it had badges on the motor and fenders and dash. I don't know how well you know David, but he never really checked the car or even knew what it would have had. The dual fuel pumps in the trunk had left holes from the mounting brackets, the ladder bars had left indentations on the car where mounted, the header were pieces left at David's other location, the Phase III box was also in the extra pieces given to me along with a B4B intake and old Holley 3 barrel carb. partial remnants left in the hole on the dash where the manual choke is. With you being in the Atlanta area, feel free to stop by at any time. Oh yeah, I recently talked to a guy that has owned a coupe of Motion cars that happened to be hanging out at Motion when the car was being prepped for the work. David also told me the car had the badges, amazing huh!!!! Have fun

Re: 70 Buick/Motion GSX
 

Then, I'm sure all of that's true. We only discussed the car twice. I asked him if it had any Motion mods like
headers, ladder bars, 3 bbl carb, fuel pumps etc & he said 'nope it just has 2 badges...if I thought it was a Motion I'd be asking 100K' and 'someone else has 1st right of refusal & will probably buy it, so if & when I decide to sell it I'm going to price it as an unrestored GSX'. So, I guess you got a great deal with all those extra parts and all https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/beers.gif

What year was all this done...?

Re: 70 Buick/Motion GSX
 

Glad to finally get the story on your https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/cool.gif MOTION GSX------------ ...I liked your little panel of toggle switches, especially the tail-light kill switch--I think Motion also offered a rear oil slick switch.............
