It's now May 2026. Does anyone know who to contact on verifying a Baldwin-Motion, or Motion Corvette after Joel Rosen? Thanks!

Thanks so much "smallblockhero"! I saw your other Motion post and was going to check with you. I'm still doing research on this car.

Thanks again. I read the Hemmings article on Joel Rosen where it mentioned that Mr. Alford had acquired the records, etc. i did contact him/Motion and have received a copy of the agreement which provides a couple of options. For the moment we're still doing whatever research we can - so hopefully good luck. At worst, looks like it would be at least a "catalog" car as all the modifications are from the early 70's.

Smallblock and Steel Cities - thanks! THAT hemi needs a home! Yeah - I don't have a hemi in a vette either, also have both separately. I didn't want to get into the specifics of the 2 options from "Motion", but doing more homework before is best. Going through NCRS to see if I can get get the shipping and dealer info. I have owner info (2) with last guy having and storing for 22 years and prior registering in 1983 (both East Coast) - working on contact.

I can describe and have pics but like to get more done before I shame myself on this forum. On the plus side someone here may know this car - although it's been hidden for many years.

FYI: I'm an old guy, originally from St Louis, even worked at the Fisher Body Chevrolet plant next to the Corvette plant in 1967-1968 (before USAF) and a long-time Corvette and muscle cars collector). Just trying to say I have some idea on older stuff.

Thanks again.
