His initial post states it was an SS. The Motion claim seems to have grown or followed after that. Has it been verified?

Also looks like it was already back-halved in the first pics posted of it.
I would strongly agree it would be criminal to butcher a true Motion car, but either way, it looks insanely awesome in the build.

Yes...there is no doubt about this car being told that it is a real Motion car. Even the owner has said it.

But here is my two pennies. Real Motion car or not, I am glad to see someone once again not bow down to a "trend". I personally do not like labels. Be it Day 2, Pro Street, Rat Rod, etc. It's okay to use these terms to describe something if the other person can't picture what you are talking about. But to use these terms as a fashion statement is ridiculous. I'm building a my Vega to look like something from my childhood memories, not because I think Day 2 is the latest and greatest thing.
The only thing I am confused about is why there isn't a tiny pulley on that blower? If you are turning that thing 1:1 or lower, it's a huge waste of free power..lol Good job.
