...woke up to this email from Marty;

Hi Chris:
I saw your posting as well as those from others on the Supercar Registry website regarding cover copy of the Motion book. I certainly appreciate all those nice words from my friends.

However, you and others should know that some of that copy was inaccurate and was not proofed by me before being released by the publisher. There will be changes.

For example, in 1964 Joel Rosen was running Motion Performance in Brooklyn, NY and I was Editor of CARS Magazine. We first met in 1964. A couple of years later Joel moved Motion to Baldwin, NY and in 1967 when the Camaro was introduced I worked with Joel on putting the Baldwin Chevrolet deal together, resulting in Baldwin-Motion Supercars. I continued to work with Joel on the Baldwin-Motion program, later on marketing Motion Supercars. At no time did I ever have an interest in Motion Performance. It has always been owned by Joel and Judith Rosen.

As always, thanks for your support.
Regards,
Marty

This is a small insert in an article written by a long time Motion fan and well known automotive enthusiast Paul Zazarine in 'MuscleCar Enthusiast"...
"Joel "Mr Motion" Rosen had surgery to relieve a back condition this past May. Since I just had the same surgery in February, I called to wish him good luck.Joel was the man who built the extraordinary Baldwin-Motion Camaros back in the late 1960's .Those cars are now worth six figures. You may not know that Joel is a superb model maker and supplies highly detailed aviation and naval models to both private parties as well as the Department of Defense. I know you join me in wishing Joel a speedy recovery"....Here's to good health guys..

And for those who would like to have your copy signed by Mr. Schorr, plan on picking one up at the Nickey Chicago Muscle Car and Corvette Nationals November 21-22.

This would make a great Christmas gift too, so plan on buying several copies!

great people like Joel Rosen and Marty make this book worth owning. simply because Joel built the cars and Marty marketed them and its an account of all of their time spent in the 60's and 70's So, you can bet the info in the book is worth a look if it came from them
