Default Where can I find info on MOTION Corvettes ?

What's up all ? Who Knows about or where can I find info about the Baldwin/motion corvettes ? I read the first part of a article on them in"vette" but it did'nt say much about the cars themselves.I like the theory of these cars.How much do these go for ? what years were they produced ?Thanks Dale :thumbs:

A lot of $$...

Just to verify if a car you think is a BM car, it costs $1500. There are no official numbers of BM cars produced that I know of. And this is all that is left of Motion Performance, the dudes that souped up the cars for Baldwin Chevrolet...

Bottom left corner of this page is links to 2 of them, but there's a lack of information on the cars.

I met a Motion Vette owner at a local show this past Spring. He is a local guy (20 minutes away), that has started a site with a Motion car registry. Try http://www.LS5.com. I believe you may find some info there or at least have an additional source for info.

This is the "actual" old Motion shop where it all happened! Sunrise Highway, Baldwin, N.Y. Use to lurk around here in my distant H.S. days and remember those awsome cars. As you can see now it houses a front-end shop and a speed/auto accessorie store named speedworld.com. I think this place should be a GM landmark. Maybe a Motion museum. Not a bad idea! Just a piece of vette trivia for ya. L8TER, Paul.

Did any of you notice this add with the fastback window on a '69? Way cool :cool: . Does a car with that back window really exist? I've never seen one and would like to see a better picture of one.

A buddy of mine has a 73 with that exact rear window conversion. I think it may have been a kit at one time or another. No....he doesen't have a motion car. At least at this point we don't think so.
