Default Re: "New" '69 Motion Camaro's

Actually,I dont doubt you are right,particualrly about the earler cars.I know that in an article a few years back which featured the red with white stripes 70 phase 3 car which I belive was in the Robson collection at one time,it mentioned that the cost of the car new exceeded $10,000 back in 1970 which was more then a new Ferrari at the time.I have a copy of the invioce from a 72 Motion built Camaro that was converted in 1976,and that job cost $10,600.That car had 4.10 gears put in the stock 10 bolt,along with the suspention package,a shift kit and super holeshot convertor in the stock trans and an LS6 crate motor with a cam,intake and carb kit.The car did have a set of wild wheel flares and wide tires all around which I am sure contributed to the cost of the bodywork,but it was still a big chunk for a car that was already owned.
