Here is all I have to say:

1. There is speculation this car was a Motion car from new..how did Joel put on on L-88 hood in '68 when those hoods did not hit the market until 1970 or so?

2. If anyone reads the late 60's/early 70's NY based mags (Rodder &amp; SuperStock, Cars etc) there were tons of Motion converted cars either featured or pics in letters to the editor. Nearly all of them <span style="font-weight: bold">DID NOT</span> have the fiberglass hoods/paint stripes/sidepipes or other well known Motion trinkets...funny how all these &quot;trinkets&quot; get added on the restoration...can't people just restore the car how it was? Well no they think they need to add the trinkets to get the price up.
