Motion VW Beetle
 
I'm thinking of selling my 1968 motion beetle. I just want to see if there is any interest in it before I decide to post it for sale. Need to be restored but very solid and all there.

You really won't know how much interest it will get until you post it in the for sale section.

I'm not a buyer,but would love to see it.
Always thought the Motion Beetle was the ultimate oxymoron car.
Take one of the most docile vehicles,and mate it with Joel Rosen.:burnout:

Talked to guy last night. Not currently running, but all there. Sounds like it was bought a mile from Motion, original owner did also, and second owner not far from there. Not a Baldwin car. Modifications were done by Motion over the years and he has a lot of those receipts. A lot was done by the sounds of it. Sounds like a neat car. He is looking for 25k. Absolutely no idea what it takes money wise for a concours restoration on a VW? Apparently he has contact info for both owners also. Sounds legit if the work orders are true. Don't see an issue getting verification as a Motion modified VW from Joel. I think it is at one of Joel's former business partners house. He was part owner of Motion at one time i was told. Dave
