JoeG's 1969 Baldwin Motion SS L78 Chevelle

Back then---if it couldn't be waxed --I didn't take a picture----
The engine was set-up as a PhaseIII---minus the 427---there was a picture of blue PhaseIII Camaro in a mag-MCR?- with Joel Rosen's picture in the upper corner---that is what the PhaseIII engine package looked like.
