Letter from Joel Rosen

[sYc]

I think when Joel was scheduled to attend the SCR, some of us had heard the not so flattering stories about him, thus we were on edge. Nothing could have been farther from the truth, as he was very helpful, informative and entertaining, even throwing in some witty humor (when quizzed about Yenko). Since that time, whether by phone, email or at MACAN, Joel has been nothing but a joy to be around, at least for me.

Not sure I agree with your assessment of Joel's documentation process, Adam. First of all, he doesn't have or share 'actual invoices' for work performed by Motion, nor does he visually inspect any cars, but rather rely's on pictures sent to him. Why would anyone trust his memory to either confirm or disclaim a car based on this?

Motion cars that have actual invoice paperwork are certainly special vehicles, but stickers, valve covers, fender badges etc, etc don't necessarily make them real Motion car's. It is MY OPINION that Joel has blessed car's put together with catalog parts / insufficient evidence or perhaps because he has had a personal relationship with the owner/buyer/seller.

Again, this is only my opinion, but I feel certain that I'm not the only one who feels that some of the 'letter documented' cars are not real.
