I remember the article on that 72 Chevelle..it's awesome! As I recall, they also blew out the rear end while doing the road test for 'Hi-Performance Cars' Magazine and had to replace it prior to delivery to the waiting customer. Another shining example of the fact that I was born to late.

copo9566aa,
I think the car hobby is lucky --that Joel Rosen, MR. MOTION, is still with us and still contributing to the hobby------Unfortunately, I will not be able to attend the Supercars Reunion # 6-----So here's to all the supercars that ever were and to the visionary people that built them!------- [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beers.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beers.gif[/img]---JoeG [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/burnout.gif[/img]

copo9566aa,
There was an article about 350 turbo/CH. Motion Vega estate wagons being shipped over to the Middle-East.--I wonder if that is the Motion Manta-Vette in the background?? ------JoeG [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggthumpup.gif[/img]

This is probably this one...
Motion Vega estate (woody ) wagon 350/CH Turbo Charged
The letter CH is for Charged ????
This is probably the hood on the top....
Firestone tires... [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif[/img]
Side pipes...
Yes the two Vette is probably two Motion Manta Ray.
One possibly Orange or Red and the other Yellow.
But with B&W pix ???

I thought the Hemi Dart was absolutely unbeatable, but not according to this picture where Bill Mitchell's Motion Camaro pulls a big holeshot on it. Cause all I've been hearing about that period's drag racing was Hemi's were beating everything, i'd like to find out different.

Bigblockhappy,--------I guess Bill Mitchell had the Hemi-Dart reaction time.--------------JoeG [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/burnout.gif[/img]-----Plus that Motion Camaro was a Bear!

copo9566aa,
Yeah--sorry got a little lazy--turbo/charged=turbo/ch
Firestone Tires--In the article the Vega had Firestone Wide Oval 60's in rear and Firestone 70's up front, I guessed they paid more attention to quaility control back then.----TODAY [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/dunno.gif[/img]---JoeG
