Baldwin Motion Book
 

I'm dying for this book to come out.. is there any new info on it? https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/dunno.gif

It's got to be getting close to being published. With Mr. Schorr writing and Mr. Rosen no doubt contributing, it will be well-worth the wait.

It will be worth the wait but it won't happen any time soon. Marty needs more cooperation from owners of Baldwin Motion cars to come forward with pics and history https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/burnout.gif

What!? That doesn't make any sense to me considering the 40 years of history between Marty and Joel. Please embellish.

I would think Joel has to have some FANTASTIC vintage photos from "the days"....that's what I want to see!

Re: Baldwin Motion Book
 

Doesn't sound like a problem between Schorr and Rosen, it sounds like current B-M owners aren't coming forward and offereing their cars up for depiction in the book?

As for vintage pics, Mr. Schorr was the editor of Cars Magazine (and others?) back then and if he still has the photo files from those days the book will probably be a treasure-trove of old pics.

Might be too many pokers in the fire right now...IMO priorities had to be shifted to concentrate on the current Motion car project and deadlines...I'm waiting on the book also.. In the meantime,Joel's Hemmings articles will kinda pave the way for the Motion book debut .......I hope soon...

Re: Baldwin Motion Book
 

I attempted to submit my Motion Performance pictures for use in the book but because of potential copyright infringements, they cannot be printed in the book; even if we delegate credit to the original photographers. Its a shame because I have quite a few priceless pictures.

Re: Baldwin Motion Book
 

Dan, any pics you would like to post here? thanks.

It has absolutely nothing to do with the relationship between Joel Rosen and Marty Schorr. In order for the book to have significant interest original photos from either the present or past true Baldwin Motion cars are necessary. These cars were rare enough in the day as they were all custom ordered and rarely if ever sat on the showroom floor. As such pics are essential and hard to come by. The individuals who ordered the cars included the very wealthy and flamboyant; actual royalty in more than one case. Joel has the actual files on these cars but no pics. Marty feels that even with this great history more photo documentation is essential. Another item to keep in mind is that when Joel documents a car for you it is a very tedious process including reviewing many files, with some of the cars having only carbon copies of the original invoices remaining.
