<font color="blue">Yes, I picked up that car a long time ago.
It's been sitting since.
The window registration decal read 1971 ... I believe the last time driven. The odometer is at 26k.</font>

Re: FIRST BALDWIN MOTION SS 427 CHEVELLE FOUND!!!!
 

Just had a nice conversation with Joel Rosen about the car and he certainly remembered it. In fact, he told me a story of when he was racing it in 1968 at NY National Speedway and flipped it over after losing traction with the skinny 7" slicks that were on it. that explains why the roof was replaced on the car. He said he was upside down in the car hanging by the lap belt and John Mahler had to get him out. He wasn't seriously injured, just shaken up but did go to the hospital to make sure he did not break anything. He also told me was that he was pretty sure that it was the only '67 Chevelle he built. He is going to look though his files and see if he has any paperwork from when the car was built.

One final thing he mentioned was Marty Schorr's upcoming book on the Motion history and that he had been working very closely with Marty. He was wondering if there would be demand for a nice hard cover coffee table type book and perhaps an autographed limited edition. I'm sure there would be quite a few site members that would be very interested. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif

Re: FIRST BALDWIN MOTION SS 427 CHEVELLE FOUND!!!!
 

We talk to Marty fairly often, and have helped him with contact info, pictures, etc...from what he's told us, it's gonna be a Motion fan's DREAM. There's even supposed to be a section on SCR6...https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif
