Joel changed the Motion signs a few times over the years. Motion Mini Car was on the right side end of the building and had its own sign. I have a big plexi glass Motion sign that was in the window. I bought it from Joel but he was not sure of exact year he installed it. Color pictures are rare. What year are you trying to do?

Joe,
When did Joel move to the Sunrise HWY address and where was he located prior?

Thanks for the info guys.I have the Vette mag that has the story on the KO MOTION but it is at my parents house,I'll try to go find it this weekend but if you could send a pic that would be great.Most of the diecast out are from 69 or 70 but there will be the 72 or 74 vega coming out next year, It would be nice to have a "good" pic of the sign from the 70's but no big deal,to me the sign that is in the vette mag was the coolest looking one. Another question is what colors was the sign and also the building?
Here is a link to the only pics I have besides the Vette mag that I hope I still have.

Awesome pictures! Those are sweet. I have never seen a Nova with such wide tires. It make me happy to be a member of a club where everyone goes crazy for these things. Let me try and scan it in.

Great project this 1/8 scale Motion Performane Diag center.
My vote for the color of the letter(probably Blue)
The 74 SD 455 TA on one of the this pic look Buccaner Red
Pic attached show a small corner of the diag center.
