Hey guys... I didnt mean to cause this sort of reaction... All I was saying is that the boat is down right authentic with Joel's documentation. If it were my boat I would take it that extra step. Koddos to the owner for bringing to this point.

I just re-read the caption from H.R. and noticed that it said Motion emblems on Hull and Valve covers! The emblems and V/C's could be out at the platers?

Regardless of whether he used original covers or repops (like that never happens on Super Cars) it is a beautiful restoration and a great piece of history and would be great to see the boat at the reunion. Would that even qualify....

I agree, this is an awesome piece that would be great to share at a reunion. If shop jackets and key fobs in glass showcases can be displayed I would not see a boat as being out of place at all. I would like to see some before pictures of the boat especially the emblems etc.

(That's a joke too!) [/ QUOTE ] hey, it's all good. we love the boat. I would not be surprised how many people buy those VC from peebay and think they are real. I have seen them on very respectable cars and even a motion camaro on this site. that does not take away from the car. the real parts are like hens teeth and if Dan wants to part with his for only a grand someone should jump. Should I start scraping the old Motion stickers off my tool boxes? NEWS FLASH; those ansen covers with fake emblems are going for only $50. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/BALDWIN-M...117788509QQrdZ1 |

It's ironic. I had 4 sets of orig BB Motion valve covers, 2 with the smaller emblems and 2 with the cut emblems. I sold one of the smaller emblem sets on ebay to EEnelco or eSELCO or something like that, He is the current owner/ancestor of ANSEN foundry (valve covers, wheels etc) Guess what, he must have pry'd the original emblems off the covers and repoped them cause now HE is selling the fakes on ebay. I am restoring a set now for my consumption and using the CUT emblems because nobody is repo'ing those yet, you know they are real. I thought Joel was chasing these guys.? SULLY
