Re: Letter from Joel Rosen
Ed, I think most of us would consider a car with Motion bolt-on parts more of a clone than an in-house Motion Perf modified car with a huge diff in it's value.
Adam, I have a copy of the ebay listing for 136370F180xxx from when it was in AZ. The seller stated that he spoke with Joel, paid the $1500, but he 'could not locate any records on that car or many other cars he modified 30 yrs ago'. I know that after it was purchased, a more complete catalog of physical evidence was given to Joel and then it received a letter confirming it's provenance. I'm in agreement that this one is real and think nicb could have helped persuade him to sign off on it.
Been a while, but I also recall an Iceland Vette, a Buick, 396 Nova and recently heard that the ebay Iowa Chevelle got blessed. While they all may be Motion, I don't ever recall seeing or hearing about any actual work order invoices....and, that's my point.
Regarding Dan's car, one would think Joel could remember it very easily....color change from Seq Green to black, dyed interior from green to black, poss winged spoiler/holes in deck lid, tow tabs, HD radiator, special shifter and it was a 68 Nova. Clearly one would remember a car like this, or say 'NO-not one we did'...but maybe? C'mon
