Possible Motion firebird found

I have found a 70 firebird with a motion badge on dash a huge front sway bar and strange looking motor mounts and a red painted traction bar that is made of galvanized metal. There's no motor or trans. I noticed the motion badge and motor mounts so I picked the car up.

I posted about this a while back. A Motion shop mechanic who I believe was named Ronnie Saunders built a 70 bird for himself. It was black with white motion stripes. There were pics of a magazine article about the car posted in the tread. The guy was African American and the last listing I could find for what might have been him had him in Brooklyn back in the day. Let us know what you find out. I have a 73 bird with a 427 and L-88 hood built like an old school hot rod,and this car inspred it. I believe the hood on the Motion car might have been steel with a scoop bonded on.
