That was the white car he owned also. He showed that magazine article to me when I was looking at the black car to buy. Both cars were at his house then but the lettering on the doors was no longer there, just a few sponsor decals....Rat Pack......

Ratpack;

I just read th article, it does not say the car was built by Motion. It only says the engine came from Motion, a Phase III 427 ZL/X Competition engine. I do not think this car was built in '69. The article refers to the car as being "fresh" and still not all the bugs worked out. Also: Cragar Super Tricks were not introduced to the public until early 1972.
Grumpy Jenkins and Dick Landy were given the first set of frontrunners in late '71. Grumpu first used them on his Vega and Landy on his Challenger. The rears did not come out until later '72.
Also the Weiand intake. That "second generation" updated style did not come out until late 1973 early '74. Hope this info helps.
