If I remember correctly, the Yellow Motion Phase III Corvette Joel found and restored was originally bought as a gift for a movie producer and later found on a movie set wearing cheap black paint over the original Motion paint/stripes. It was said to have been in a movie. The story is in a Vette mag article.

Motion built a few cars though the 1980s and maybe early 1990s. and still was designing/selling some custom fiberglass parts.
Here is a picture of Joel’s wife’s Mustang that was used in the catalog.
I was told she would cruz this rig to LI beach with the top down and a big dog riding shotgun.

This is the only way I'd get behind the wheel of a big bumper Camaro.
