Default Re: Canadian Motion Cars

Don't know much about this Motion Corvette that was here in Ontario when still new. It was a light color with 1969 style side pipes and single headlight front end treatment. Also had the side vents 'reversed'. Stripe on the added 1967 427 stinger Corvette hood scoop and across the roof and wraps around the rear of the car. The car had what looked like 'Ansen sprint' wheels. The exterior color looked like pearl white or maybe yellow. Side view mirror was small style painted body color and not chrome.

If that car was pearl yellow it could very well be the one I saw in the Motion showroom when I was 8 or 9 (1970'ish). That car left a lasting impression on me and I have never seen any current photos of that car.
I'd love to know what happened to it.
