1967 Baldwin Motion Cars
 

Does anyone know of any documented 1967 Baldwin Motion cars of any model that still exist?

Re: 1967 Baldwin Motion Cars
 

I think there are a couple out there. I know the only Phase III SS427 '67 Chevelle was just found recently. (of course you already know that.. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/naughty.gif) I don't think any of the '67 Camaros have surfaced, that I know of anyway. The Ko-Motion '67 Vette still exists somewhere. Thats about all I know on the '67s. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/dunno.gif

BTW, Any updates on that Chevelle? https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/grin.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/wink.gif

Re: 1967 Baldwin Motion Cars
 

My Chevelle and Ko-Motion are the only 67 BM's I know of either. There were at least two '67 BM Camaros built, but their whereabouts are unknown. In speaking with Joel and Marty, I do know VERY few 67 BM cars were built as the program was just getting started. My Chevelle was deliver in August of '67. In '68 the program picked up momentum and there were more built. I know of four legit '68 BM Camaros that have been found.

Was the car on EBay awhile back with the jackass of an owner a real car?

I wonder what became of this car. I think it was the first B-M '67 Camaro 427 conversion. Note 350 emblems and bare-bones trim level (no Style Trim--wheelwell chrome, driprail chrome, pinstripes). Car had a crate L88 installed for the article from which this photo is from. Baldwin salesman Dave Bean stands with car in front of the showroom.

Same car in color from magazine cover. Tahoe Turquoise. Note hood emblem cropped and added to grille by magazine photo editor. Mags were International 14x6.

Same car with Joel Rosen and crew. Note "427" emblem applied to SS hood.

Re: 1967 Baldwin Motion Cars
 

Crooked 427 emblems. You mean things weren't perfect back then?

Here's a couple '67s

Re: 1967 Baldwin Motion Cars
 

Notice the ad in the window promoting the 68 Supercars yet they still have 67's out front.

Re: 1967 Baldwin Motion Cars
 

The July 1979 edition of "Street Racer" has an article by Rick Berliner about Reb Brown's SS RS '67 Camaro titled "Motion Performance Hugger", The article describes the car as an original Motion 427 Camaro race car. With lettering that could still be seen under the current paint.

Re: 1967 Baldwin Motion Cars
 

Stefano, good to see you posting. I've seen the article you mentioned, but the car seems to be long gone. Reb Brown no longer owns it.

Re: 1967 Baldwin Motion Cars
 

<font color="blue">I have a freind that is looking to purchase a "possible" '67 Motion Camaro.
He asked me a couple of things to determin if it was real, in which I replied,"Without paperwork it is almost impossible."
The one thing he said is that the car is a Big block, Tri-power, 4 speed.
He is going to try to get some pics &amp; info this week.

My question is, "Did Joel ever leave or put a tri-power on these early cars?" https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...s/confused.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/dunno.gif </font>

Re: 1967 Baldwin Motion Cars
 

Normally Motion got rid of the tripower set-up amd replaced it with a single 4, so I would say it is doubtful, but you never knows. I sure wouldn't buy it based on that info alone.

Re: 1967 Baldwin Motion Cars
 

Be carefull. Everybody that has a car with a part or two that could have come on a Motion wants to try to cash in on the craze and get the big $$$$ for their cars.


I have a '72 Vette that has a pop up gas cap that came from Motion. Wonder if that makes it worth $100,000 ????? I don't think so. (But I am open to close offers if anyone is interested).



I know the original owner of the car and he ordered the gas cap from Joel and put it on his basic stock burnt orange, 350ci vette with auto trans. Then he had it painted black with a set of dish mags.


Without the paperwork from Joel you only have a car that is worth what someone is willing to pay and no where near what a real documented Motion car is worth. So make the owner prove it or else be prepared to take a big hit in the pocketbook.


I am sure that Joel is really tired of every body thinking they have one of his cars. Good Luck with this one.

I'll give you 100 Grand, site unseen.
I trust everyone here &amp; know it is a good deal.
Let me know if you accept my offer.

Here's a picture of the 100 Grand thats waiting for you. </font>

Re: 1967 Baldwin Motion Cars
 

I had discussed a tri-power set-up with Joel/Motion when I had ordered the car and though it does look https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/cool.gif under the hood , it was decided to go with the 3 barrel for all out performance with the 456 rear. --But if someone wanted this set-up no matter what ,it could have been put in, Motion did do several articles on dealing with any tri-power gremlins----------I know Nickey advertised and put them in--I think also there is a Dana with A TRI-POWER setup---I never read about a MOTION car having one new or never seen one, but I've learned to say "Never say Never"---But I would think Motion would have tried to talk you into using a 4 or 3 bl-carb.------------

Re: 1967 Baldwin Motion Cars
 

I believe the orange (spec. order paint) one is a Dana car. The Yellow one to it's left is a Motion car and has a single 4 bbl..

Re: 1967 Baldwin Motion Cars
 

Other than the Pontiac engine, that Chevelle is awesome. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/wink.gif[/img]

Would love to see more pics.

Re: 1967 Baldwin Motion Cars
 

A board member has a blue 67 BM Chevelle and lives in North Carolina... last I knew around Pinehurst. I think that Ricky Smith was restoring the car, is it done?

It's a sharp looking 67 Chevelle and I really like the license plate, but it's clearly a far cry from a real BM Chevelle. At the moment, there's only one real and documented '67 BM Chevelle and it's sitting in a shop in VA. I hope your friend is not trying to pawn it off as a real one.

Re: 1967 Baldwin Motion Cars
 

There were no Phase III Chevelles Camaros or anything in 1967

as far as I can tell, the Phase III option came out in 1968

Re: 1967 Baldwin Motion Cars
 

That's what I always believed too,per Joel Rosen &amp; Marty Schorrs' own words to us during dinner @ SCR6.

Re: 1967 Baldwin Motion Cars
 

If that passes for documentation I have some documented ocean front property in the middle of the country... any takers?
