Hello I just found a 1970 LT1 in rough shape in the b-ham area the current owner told me when it was purchased new the dealer sent it to FL to have a kit installed it looks like a 280 Z in the front with a rear spoiler does anyone know anything about this dealer option

Way too little to go on, pictures would help,
While motion did sell the z car style headlights and spoilers ecklers sold their version as did brunos and several others,
Motion was in baldwin ny and ecklers was in titusville fl.
As far as i know motion was the only "dealer" to install such stuff but they werent in fl.

While im a modder im not short sighted, a real LT-1 would be far more desirible and worth more stock ( if a concern ) than modded.

in the last 10 years or so there has been a misnomer that any old custom is motion and all montion stuff is gold,
Basically all the mega dollar motion cars with correct documentation and provenance are accounted for,

I know a guy who said he paid mr motion 2k to document a custom as motion built and all he got was a signed motion poster and told we have no documentation for you.
Over the counter motion parts have no greater value in general than ecklers or any one else,
