[/ QUOTE ] You know, I had a talk with Joel about this very fact recently and this is how he defined what a true "Baldwin Motion" car was. Please read, this is the actual email dialog I had with him. As I have maintained (because he explained it this way to me before), the cars didn't necessarily have to be sold by Baldwin Chevrolet. They could have come from elsewhere as long as Motion Performance did the mods and sold the car. Dan, I don't read it that way. I consider your car a BM Joel Rosen Pres. Motion Models Inc. 2141 N.

We also had several rare occasions where people traded or sold back a few Baldwin Motion cars to us and they were resold which I think would still fall in that category. Motion cars (again my opinion) are those which were built by Motion Performance Inc. for resale or worked on for customers from all over the world from 1966 until the closing of our service department in the late '90's. Hopefully this will give you the definition you are looking for. >> > Joel >> > Motion Models Inc. >> > 2141 N.

I would say most collectors feel if a car was not sold through or delivered originally to Baldwin Chevrolet then it would be a Motion car. A new car sold though Baldwin as a Motion modfied car commands a premium versus a car modified by Motion only. I don't understand the logic of something being called a BM car is it never had any relation with Baldwin Chevrolet. I understand why they would want to call the new ones BM cars, but that in my opinion is to add value eventhough Baldwin is not involved. Baldwin Motion or Motion only, they are all great cars and highly desirable.

Probably because the majority of car guys have always referred to these as Baldwin Motion cars...the folks who are really into Supercars know the difference but most people just remember the old magazine ads !!
