Default Re: Motion (?) item on ebay ?

That's the old Brooklyn Motion shop Rick....Joel just stuck in the Motion name with the computer. I had gone back there to see if there was anything left of the old Motion sign............This photo is only a few years old---The neighborhood was in much better shape back in the 50's & 60's..........

About the Motion Ignition from N.J.( Joel did get the idea of Motion Performance from that Company)------Dan you better open your piggy bank........

Was not me, sorry but I was not convinced this is a Motion Performance item. There were numerous examples of the "Motion" brand name used as a poser or replicated brand name throughout the years.

You're right Dan, It wasn't a "Motion Performance" branded item as we know it ---It was just a new CD unit used back then ,which got Joel hooked on it's performance and was just another beginning factor ,which led to the Motion Performance we know today....... It is a neat piece though.......I think JoeC has an actual Motion Ignition catalog.........
