"New" '69 Motion Camaro's

[Charley Lillard]

Ed..As far as I know, Joel is working like the rest of us. He just probably earns more than you. He has his business of selling models and airplanes. You could sell models also. That is what this country is about. If you make less now than you did a few years ago you might try something else. As for Joel's 1,500.00 fee, I think that is cheap in comparison to the value added to the car. Joel could charge 5000.00 and people that need it to document their car are still money ahead. Joel apparently is going to have his name on some new cars to be built. More power to him. Once again that is what this country is about.

It seems to me Joel's concept of using a vintage 69 Camaro body is more true to the original concept then taking a new 2002 Camaro and modifying it and calling it a "Dick Harrell" camaro. Of course our free market system will determine just how sucessful this concept is.

In regards to Joel's $1,500 verification fee, as Charley said, it is cheap compared to the value it creates for the owner. The amount of the fee should have nothing to do with the twenty minutes of time it might take to look through some files and write a letter. Using that concept, we sure wouldn't be paying sports stars, actors, doctors, etc., the multi millions they earn for their limited time. The other thing the fee does is discourage every Tom, Dick and Harry from pestering Joel to document any old car that happens to have a fly eye air cleaner or a set of finned valve covers.

Here is the shop that will be building the cars;

Go down to custom restorations. Click on the yellow cuda (the six shooter). I would imagine that this is the idea behind the Motion build as it says its viper based. Also look at the camaro build as the reinforced tunnel idea is incorporated there. So it must be a few ideas from these builds.

Guys,
This week i was lucky enough to be able to see the car AND
the motor for the #1 motion sc supercoupe!!! I'm telling you...Joel Rosen isnt playing around !!! I've owned my own performance machine shop for 14 years and have NEVER seen
a motor like Joel Rosen has put together for his car !!
I see it was advertised at 600 hp... its over 700 and runs on pump gas!!!! the most beautiful motor I have ever seen. All MOTION !! 10 second radial tire street cars that run on pump gas and cruise comfortably on the highway with the A/C on? I thought i built some nice stuff but i'm afraid to say rosen has me beat.
Its my understanding that there will be MOTION motors too??? Maybe even a line of phase III camaros for us "poor boys " who cant afford the sc supercoupes. I guess SEMA is where we will find out? I'll be there!!!
Seems like rosen is taking names.... look out
see ya ! 1 steve keech www.keechs.com

So who's going to be the official picture taker for this wonderful event...I nominate Bruce (Xplantdad) - he takes great pics...but I know, he's going to have to do a little traveling - but like his shirt said "I took the pictures at Barret Jackson Auction so Charley didn't have to"...that was you Bruce...right?...

Fred...Yep...that was me...I was funnin' with Charley (with the shirt).

Unfortunately, I will not be able to go to SEMA...I'd love to...but the company that I do promotional work for is putting on a huge event that weekend....and the next.

Maybe next year? I nominate Jeff...or Seattle Sam...I know that he'll be there...and he takes great pics, too!
