Re: "New" '69 Motion Camaro's
 

Just wondering how exactly they're going to make "Baldwin Motion " Camaros? I don't mean to split hairs, but the debate over BM -v- Motion Modified cars is always a dandy.

Where are these Baldwin cars going to come from? https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/dunno.gif

Sorry if I sound like a downer, because I bet these cars will be cool as hell. They ought to build them using the repro bodies or using the clients cars, IMHO.

I have never weighed in on this subject, but honestly who cares WHERE the car came from?? IMO the cool part of the any supercar is what was done to the car by the respective company that did the modification. Anything that Joel has ever touched or that he intends to touch will be highly collectible and worth lots of $$. After all, there is only ONE Joel Rosen.

That is really COOL. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/cool.gifI want one. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...s/headbang.gif

Re: "New" '69 Motion Camaro's
 

I think it will be a great sucess and think how valuable the cars will be in 20 or 30 years. Joel and his people made a very smart decision to go ahead with it, financially and historicly.

Re: "New" '69 Motion Camaro's
 

It was a smart marketing decision to use the name "Baldwin-Motion" considering the hangup about that prefix when it comes to the resale value of the original cars.

Re: "New" '69 Motion Camaro's
 

Think they'll build any in triple green? https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...s/rolleyes.gif

Re: "New" '69 Motion Camaro's
 

With that white tail treatment I think FG would look bad ass

Re: "New" '69 Motion Camaro's
 

Thats the one,I remeber seeing an article about it back around 1990 in Muscle Car Review I think.It stated that the car was a low milage car bought from a dentist{I would have said doctor before you mentioned it}it also mentioned how it was either sold or almost sold for a screaming deal at an auction because most of the people there considred it to be some kind of gussied up hot rod and didnt know what it really was.I wish they were that stupid at the auctions these days.Back when I was still in high school I had a cutout picture of YOUR car tucked in the corner of my dresser mirror.I bet they still have that pic in a box somewhere.How cool is that?

Here is an update:

[ QUOTE ]
Friends of Baldwin-Motion & Motion:
This week we will be releasing important technical information on the new
two-place Baldwin-Motion SuperCoupe to the media. Here's a heads-up:

The 600-plus-hp all-aluminum Merlin/Motion big-block is a brand new engine
and the first one, to be built and dyno-tuned by Bill Mitchell, will go into the
first Baldwin-Motion Camaro SuperCoupe. Before going into the car it will be
fitted with Kinsler Cross-Ram fuel injection.

The Camaro's engine layout is front/mid, with the big-block set back a full
12 inches on the tubular chassis. The front and rear chassis sections are tied
together by a tubular steel spine/backbone which runs through the console and
is welded solid to the body.

The interior layout is two-seat with a new IP assembly with MOTION-branded
instruments.

The Viper-based rear end utilizes a Dana 44 Posi centersection and custom
high-torque axles. The four-wheel independent suspension makes use of
fully-adjustable coil-over spring shocks and new Motion-branded Baer disc brakes
with
six-piston calipers and
14-inch cross-drilled rotors.

The SuperCoupe will debut and pricing announced at the SEMA Show on November
1 at the Sony exhibit.

As you can see, this is one serious Supercar!

Here is the shop that will be building the cars;
http://www.timemachinesinc.com/finishedrestorations.htm

Go down to custom restorations. Click on the yellow cuda (the six shooter). I would imagine that this is the idea behind the Motion build as it says its viper based. Also look at the camaro build as the reinforced tunnel idea is incorporated there. So it must be a few ideas from these builds.

Re: "New" '69 Motion Camaro's
 

Guys,
This week i was lucky enough to be able to see the car AND
the motor for the #1 motion sc supercoupe!!! I'm telling you...Joel Rosen isnt playing around !!! I've owned my own performance machine shop for 14 years and have NEVER seen
a motor like Joel Rosen has put together for his car !!
I see it was advertised at 600 hp... its over 700 and runs on pump gas!!!! the most beautiful motor I have ever seen. All MOTION !! 10 second radial tire street cars that run on pump gas and cruise comfortably on the highway with the A/C on? I thought i built some nice stuff but i'm afraid to say rosen has me beat. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/dunno.gif
Its my understanding that there will be MOTION motors too??? Maybe even a line of phase III camaros for us "poor boys " who cant afford the sc supercoupes. I guess SEMA is where we will find out? I'll be there!!!
Seems like rosen is taking names.... look out
see ya ! 1 steve keech www.keechs.com

Re: "New" '69 Motion Camaro's
 

So who's going to be the official picture taker for this wonderful event...I nominate Bruce (Xplantdad) - he takes great pics...but I know, he's going to have to do a little traveling - but like his shirt said "I took the pictures at Barret Jackson Auction so Charley didn't have to"...that was you Bruce...right?...

Re: "New" '69 Motion Camaro's
 

Fred...Yep...that was me...I was funnin' with Charley (with the shirt).

Unfortunately, I will not be able to go to SEMA...I'd love to...but the company that I do promotional work for is putting on a huge event that weekend....and the next.

Maybe next year? I nominate Jeff...or Seattle Sam...I know that he'll be there...and he takes great pics, too! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/beers.gif

Re: "New" '69 Motion Camaro's

I lost my camera battery charger (Nikon Coolpix 4500)on the way home from SCR8, Amazon is taking forever to send the replacement I ordered. If I get my charger in time I will take lots of pics, but no promises..
