1970 Chevrolet

There was a time when muscle cars roamed the boulevards of America. These snarling performance cars were powered by big cube engines and were adorned with names like GTO, Road Runner, Gran Sport, and Super Bee. Under their scooped hoods were Hemis, Ram Airs, Six Packs, and Turbo Jets, each displacing more than 400 cubic inches. They were Detroit’s hottest cars, but they weren’t the meanest machines on the street.
That honor went to the cars built and sold by Baldwin/Motion, a small combine located in Baldwin, Long Island, New York. The Motion side of the partnership was the genius of a Brooklyn engine builder named Joel Rosen. Rosen had built a reputation as a superb engine builder and dyno tuner. In 1966 he moved his operation to Baldwin and teamed up with Baldwin Chevrolet to form a partnership that would sell and modify what are now considered legends.
