Now we are talkin!! Love those old Pro Stock pictures. From the Gremlin to the Hornet. Saw that Baldwin car run when it was brand new with no lettering yet. Car always was a winner. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ins/3gears.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/burnout.gif

Killer pics man!!!!!

Re: Motion, Zul & Parks pics
 

What fabulous pictures!! - Do you know where that first shot was taken?
Is that the far corner of Motions building?

Re: Motion, Zul & Parks pics
 

Sure looks similar to that part of the building to me. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/dunno.gif Imagine the activity going on there every day. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/burnout.gif

Re: Motion, Zul & Parks pics
 

I thought so also, but don't remember the gas pumps??

Re: Motion, Zul & Parks pics
 

The address number is on the building....number 600...is that the address of Motion on Sunrise Highway back in the day???

here is a better shot of that bumped out corner of building, the door with the 600 is up by that camaro's fender https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/flag.gif

I see the glass block is gone from the facade and the paint is fresh, my photos are 73 or 74.

Re: Motion, Zul & Parks pics
 

Knew you would know Chris!!

Re: Motion, Zul & Parks pics
 

Very cool Pics! Here's another angle also showing the pumps.
Probably about the same year of those color ones.

Does anybody have any pictures of the whole shop from across Sunrise, from the LIRR, etc.? That would be neat to see.

Re: Motion, Zul & Parks pics
 

I'm not a T/A guru, but those look like ~74-75 vintage in the B/W photo.

Re: Motion, Zul & Parks pics
 

Does anyone know anything about the 2nd Gen Camaro that's in front of the Vette? And the Vette convertable is really cool looking.

Check out the tunnel ram sitting on the roll off

Re: Motion, Zul & Parks pics
 

Off topic..Those are 3 digit Tokheim 39 "Short" gas pumps.
They were prominent in the 1950's and used mainly in rural areas.
In general,a 39 "Short" in decent shape today brings $500 +.
I would imagine the ones in this MOTiON pic,if found today &amp; MOTiON documented could bring substanially more.The majority of the 39 "Shorts" had no ad glass below the face plate,but it was a scarcely available option..THOSE DO.
Those 20" Revere island bonnet porcelain lamps are just as deseriable as those pumps today.
WOW! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/cool.gif

while on the subject of old motion race cars does anyone know if the ribbon car was ever found?

Re: Motion, Zul & Parks pics
 

Car went to Hawaii. Have heard a rusted hulk was found, but not sure if this is rumor or fact.

Re: Motion, Zul & Parks pics
 

Tranny/engine/wheelie bars and two rims are found. Car was said to be part of the reef due to severe rusting from the body being acid dipped but I still look for that VIN on all the 70s I come across https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/smile.gif

[/ QUOTE ] https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/naughty.gifCare to share the Vin? I know you would probably love to find the car for yourself but at least if more people knew the Vin. maybe the car will actually surface &amp; be brought back to life .
