I will have to check on teh Rallys, can anyone tell if it was on option on the sales sheet? As for the above question, I would be guessing if i answered that. But i thought they were ordered with the 396...but again each one seems different so again i am passing this to someone more informative. [/ QUOTE ] They started out with L78 cars and went on from there...if Baldwin Chev. didn't have the right car at the lot they may trade with other local dealers.

This car is my favorite. Just incredible. It will be interesting what inglewood tires tires turn out to be, and getting some period correct tires on it.

[/ QUOTE ] Bill Krech's Inglewood Tire Co. was one of those early California companies that fueled the hot rod movement with specialty tires. They were a charter member helping to found SEMA. They supplied midget racers with tires in the forties and made those wide whitewall recap slicks you remember from the early sixties. They were M/T's competition on those L 60's and such we all loved back in the late sixties. I don't think they have been in business for quite some time. This car to me is the ultimate Motion car - it's what I drooled after in Baldwin's showroom weekly! A black with red stripe '69 427 Motion Camaro - it just doesn't get any better!!! ![]()
