Tom passed on some years back, his daughter, son's and son in law are good friends. He had so many cool cars in his day, I remember going over there after he returned from car hunting and there was always yenko's or Baldwin's, or rare muscle cars to see! Roy

Last I heard the car is now in Idaho, but that was a few years ago.

[ QUOTE ]
When I was fresh out of grad school and living in Houston, Texas in the mid-80's, I attended a Kruse auction at the Astro Arena (adjacent to the Astrodome). I was sitting in the stands when I heard what was easily the meanest sounding street car I've heard before or since. Out onto the auction floor rolls the aforementioned Camaro. I distinctly remember the auctioneer going over the car's rich-kid-from-Mexico heritage. I have no idea if the car sold or what it was bid up to. It was absolutely stunning and I'm sure I had a grin from ear to ear.

I'd be interested to know who the seller was and if it sold, who the buyer was and what the price was. It made a heck of an impression on me that's for sure. I'm glad to see it's still around and in great shape.

I was at the same action and remember the car very well. I wanted it so bad but had NO money back then. I talked to the guy selling the car and he said it was a no-sale because it did not reach the $25K reserve. If only...

Hey Speedrx, small world. Come to think of it, nor did I have any money at that time! Perhaps those on the message board could estimate the value of the car today if it sold privately or if it was rolled out in front of the crowd at BJ.

I'd argue on that being the "baddest" Motion car.. But it's certianly a car I love.. It is THE car that got me into Motion cars a long time ago and started this damn desease

That car is a Baldwin-Motion and not just a Motion,correct? That car looks very mean and intimidating just sitting there, I love that car!
