69 Baldwin Motion Help

Alright, this is my first post here and I am really just trying to find some info, maybe, just maybe, find the person who now owns this car. I have to get all the info from my dad, but I'll start off with some info that I do remember him telling me. My father back in '69 purchased a 69 Phase III 427 from a toronto dealership that had it built and brought up here. He took delivery of it, owned it for a few years and sold it. Now I don't know if he sold it, or traded it in..... It was a blue car, all aluminum block solid liter car. Again, I have to get some more info from him, but this is all I can remember right now. He has had a few fast cars over the years, but he always comes back to this one and how upset he was selling it. It would be very interesting if this car is in fact still around and even more interesting if it is still in Canada....

Welcome aboard Peter!.
I take it you don't happen to still have the Vin?.
Did your Dad ever race the car on the track?.
What was the dealer that had the car built and shipped to Toronto?.
Lance ( https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/show...amp;what=login ) may be a good bet for someone here that may have some memories of this car?.
Any old pics you can share?.

I have no knowledge of this car. The one we had was pearl yellow with the Hone overdrive.

He has no vin, he is looking for some pictures of it. He purchased it from a dealership called Beaumont chev olds at/around jane and lawerance, in toronto. He said it took them about 6 months to get it for him and it cost him just under $4000.00. He had to pay in advance for it. He told me he used to take it to Cayuga and race at some place by the 400, around the drive-in theatre. The car was blue. Thats pretty much all I have right now. I'll see what else he comes up with shortly. Thanks for all your help.

Phase III Motion Camaro with a ZL1 for just under $4000?
Sounds a little cheap.

Sorry, sorry, my mistake, he said around 4900, I meant to say just under 5000.00. My mistake.

Belmont was at Lawrence & Jane. We never sold a car of this description.

I will have to check with him. By the sounds of it, you worked there, so thats really interesting in itself. I will ask him for some more info. As for the previous post all I know is that it was a blue car, I don't know if it had any pinstripes etc, etc. I have to consult with him again. Thanks again.
