The LT-1's are great vettes! We currently have 7 LT-1's including this one.

I think the original owner pulled it off to install the headers he got from motion that were shipped loose with the cars. I will try and post some of the other unusual paperwork Tom saved and gave to me over the weekend.

Some really cool paperwork!

Re: 1970 Baldwin Motion LT-1 Corvette
 

WOW! The slots and the Polyglas meats MUST MUST go back on that car. Superb.

Re: 1970 Baldwin Motion LT-1 Corvette
 

I agree, slots &amp; the polyglas tires all the way.

Re: 1970 Baldwin Motion LT-1 Corvette
 

This thread just keeps getting cooler and cooler! Nice paperwork!!!!Congrats!

Re: 1970 Baldwin Motion LT-1 Corvette
 

It is a really interesting car, and the amount of paperwork is just insane!!! The original owner said he has even more stuff for it, that he will be mailing over.

I have some of the motion newsletters if anyone wants to see them i can post some of them...

CORVETTE ENVEY FOR SURE GREAT PEICE OF MOTION HISTORY

Re: 1970 Baldwin Motion LT-1 Corvette
 

great car and documentation work

Do you know if this Corvette had the black/chrome Motion emblems installed when new?

I am curious when the Motion metal emblems were first used which I think was sometime early 1970 so this car may not have had them or he may not have wanted them installed.

You may be able to find who did the bodywork on the car. Some guys that did the Motion body work are still around.
Gary &quot;the Local Brush&quot; may remember the car.

Hi Joe,

From the pictures and information from Tom i dont think it had a motion badge. Just the Mr.Motion decals, and Super Car Club decal that Tom added.

How do i track down Gary and the other gentlemen?

Thanks,
RJ

Probably the only Motion prepped car out there has never had headers.

You are more then likely right. Tom did buy and install the headers at a later date. More then likely i will put it back to stock when i redo the car.

Thanks,

Re: 1970 Baldwin Motion LT-1 Corvette
 

I am also surprised to see he escaped from Motion without buying any engine speed parts. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif[/img]

Some people were worried about having the headers installed before going through their State DMV inspection.

I have a Motion invoice on a 1968 Phase III Camaro and a 1969 Phase III Chevelle that shows the headers on the invoice with a note &quot;furnished loose&quot;

Re: 1970 Baldwin Motion LT-1 Corvette
 

Tom knew exactly what he wanted and Joel could not change his mind :-)

Besides the 70 LT-1s were pushing more then 400HP stock..

Just like the intakes and headers from GM with alot of the high performance cars in the day.
