Re: 71 SS Motion
I have seen some origial Motion paperwork,and it seems that Joel didnt put an car specific infomaton on the paperwork.
There was no info like VIN number or plate number. The paper work looks like a Jiffy Lube recipt but instead of saying 5 quarts of oil and a filter $20 it says 454 engine and phase 3 package installed $10,000 with the owner's name phone number and he time he was told to come pick the completed car up. Thats all he did back then. Typically it listed a lot of individual items he was adding,but it wasnt done like some kind super formal process.The customer got the yellow copy of the 3 sheet carbon copy form and Joel kept the other.
The most identifyng info Joel might have on your car is a recipt that says "Red Camaro" with the owner's name and phone number. It is up to yo to prove that the red Camaro you are investigting actually belonged to the guy whose name is on the recipt.
I have some recipts for Motion parts that put on my car back in the 70's,and they both look like the exact same recipt that was given to a guy who had an entire $10,500 phase 3 conversion done.Thats to say that the recipt that came in the box with the $20 mirrored dashboard insert that somebody mail ordered for my car back in 1977 looks just like the paperwork for a $200,000 car.
