Thanks Harry!! Car is in US safely now! Heading to IA. It was sent to Iceland by airplane in Jan. of 1971, so I decided to bring it back the same way. Thanks to the previous owners for cooperating with pics, documentation, and original parts that were gathered to be installed on car once again. Such as original headers, sidepipes, ladder bars, ansen wheels, etc. The largest paper in Iceland actually ran a story on this transaction. The story was labeled " Motion camaro going back to USA." The original owner e-mailed me this statement: This is more than just a motion car, it is a large initiating part of Icelands history of racing culture." I have some nice vintage photos of car with Joel Rosen and crew prepping and racing this car. Harry even sent me an Iceland motion jacket. Joel and Orvar were and still are close friends, and Joel visited Iceland several times. Orvar (former motion dealer in Iceland) is also going to attend this years reunion. I plan to have the car there with some poster size vintage photos. Again, thanks to the 3 previous owners!

Nice car! What year was it built?
I know Motion Performance concentrated on overseas sales after the trouble with US Gov. in 1974. |

Will post more info. as I want to be sure it is accurate. I believe conversion was around 77. I could be wrong. It does retain all of the motion drivetrain, and components. It was repainted in Sept. of 2002 and was a no hit rust free car.
