Yes, that is him. Talked to him in person, he's a nice guy.

Awesome Vette. What made you pass on it Kevin?

There's a pretty large difference in values between a Baldwin Motion car and a non-Baldwin car modified by Motion later. IMO $145K is pretty strong for a non-Baldwin car.

COPO, hi Charlie, if you say $145,000 was strong; wait until you read this. Barrett-Jackson told him it was a $200,000 car, which prompted him to go to the BJ auction in Florida with it. Now that would be what I call strong.

I guess I am out of the loop on current values. Not like you high-rollers [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] Does that mean Baldwin Motion (69 Camaros) cars are in the $300K range?

Kevin, hope to see you and your Motion cars at the Reunion. I am hoping mine will be finished, but it will come down to the wire. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/

BJ prices are high. They set the reserve on Reggie's cars so high that the spectators booed him!
145 is a good offer for this car in my option considering it was not Motion built as new car. It also looks like it has some restoration work done on engine but those valve covers look 70s correct chrome plated alu with long Motion emblems. Wheels look like 1980s Motion items. Joel liked those spinner center caps with Motion decals. He put them on the "HIs and Her" Motion cars I have. I think they came off easy because I'm missing 3 spinners out of the 8.
