Whoah!!! That's a pretty wild one that I've never seen. Did it come from Motion w/ those flares? Is this one of the BB beasts? More specs and pics would be great. Thanks for the post.

Thanks Guys. It is a wild Steet Freak.

The car was found in Florida, by The COPO Locator, Tim Lapata ,a few years ago. It has passed through the hands of at least a few board members, before I ended up with it.

It has a '74 350 stroked to 377. A TH400 trans and 12 Bolt with 4.56 gears.

The car is as I purchased it. There is no documentation that this is a Motion Converted Vega, but it is at the very least,a Motion Equipped Vega.

The Flairs were available from Motion Performance, they are called ZL1 Flairs.

If it was a Motion converted Vega, couldn't Joel Rosen verify it and provide you with some documentation as such? You'd think.

Mr. Rosen was contacted and paid his fee by one of the previous owners. The info. which was provided to me is that he had no records on this particular car.
