Mr Motion, Do you own this car? It looks like the car the someone posted earlier in this thread. Sharp car, is it a true Motion car? I see no emblems as pxtx said, also no sidepipes, did the 67 Motion cars have them? I wish I would have thought to take some pics of the car at Barrett Jackson to post here. Which was the correct configuration for a 67 Motion Camaro, the dog dish or Torque Thrust? This looks like a nicer car then the auction car, how long ago were these taken?Motown ![]()

I heard the announcers from BJ on Speedvision say that they are describing the cars as the owners list them. They have no responsibility to the facts of the cars, just what the owners advertise them as. Some of them are fake but only disclosed if the announcers could figure it out. I agree, BJ needs to do their best to protect the buyers who put a lot of faith and trust in the auction house.

Motown, no I donot own this car. Some of these Camaros could be had with the 67 corvette sidepipes from Motion, but then no two cars could have been exactly alike.

Here's an old magazine photo taken on front of Baldwin Chev back in the day. One car has a Stinger hood with "4-2-7" emblems and the second car has a SS hood. No sidepipes.

Here's another magazine photo taken probably on the same day. Joel Rosen in the middle and Dave Bean on the right. Don't know who the other guy is. Maybe Mr. Baldwin? Note the Stinger hood and "427" emblems on the scoop.

Here's the first (I think) '67 Motion SS 427 conversion car on the cover of the June '67 Cars Magazine. Tahoe Turquoise, SS hood, "427" Vette emblems on the hood, began life as a 350 car. The article discussed the L88 transplant under its hood.

Some of the '67 "Motion" cars seen today have the '68 Impala style SS 427 emblems pasted on all over. Not saying that they aren't real Motion cars but those '68 "SS 427" emblems tend to go high-dollar on eBay. Yes, guys could have gone back to Motion, etc., in '68 with their '67s and had the '68 "status emblems" installed.
Sure would like to hear from Joel Rosen on such things. Too bad he doesn't offer a "Here's the truth" symposium at the SC reunion. That'd be worth the price of admission! |
