My pleasure Marc, I love reading those old articles and seeing what I missed out on since I wasn't born until 1972. I'll be finishing up the Car Life articles this week and starting of High Performance Cars next week so there will be a LOT more coming soon. I wish the quality of the scans was a little better but it's ten times faster to do it from my phone instead of my printer and I wouldn't have enough time to do that until I'm retired.

I'll finish the Speed & Supercar articles tonight Dave and start on Hi Performance Cars later this weekend so there will be a lot more Motion articles, there seems to be one in every issue of HPC.

No clue if the Nova is still around. I've seen a lot of Baldwin Motion cars over the years but I've never seen a documented Motion prepped Nova or Impala in person.

Thanks again for posting these articles. I was born in 1973, 20 years too late! LOL
