At least 1992, judging by the cars in the picture. Check out the 666 plate on the lancer!

Baldwin Chevrolet closed sometime between 1972-73. Motion Performance was at that location until the mid 1990s, but unsure of the exact year.

Motion was still using a small section of the building in the 1990s for their mail order parts business

Here is a picture of Judith's 1989 Motion Mustang GT convertible at the Motion shop
