That's neat!

Be still my heart

and in my home town, I grew up in! newer knew about this car

The BAT ad presentation is poor for how exciting this Joel Rosen acknowledged Motion Supercar Survivor really is, below is its story from Marty Schorr's great 2009 'Tales of a Musclecar Builder' book also a few pics.
It was at SCR 6 in '03 also has gone through multiple auctions/owners since but w/ all it has going for it, many of us here would prefer this car to others currently selling for way more so whatever it reaches, may seem a fantastic deal in a few years?:hmmm:
Best of luck anyone here able to pull it off also Salute to Original Owner Vietnam Vet David McCaughey!:flag:

Quite the car.
Pete's article states the original engine had iron heads and the bat ad says it has aluminum heads. Where the heads changed or is one of the claims wrong?
Wonder who the lucky person was that got the L71 from this back in the day ?

what a part of history. I freeken love it.

even more crazy. I grew up no more then 8 minutes away from the corvette and my good friend's family had their repair shop almost next to the owners house where the Corvette was.. And never knew anything about it. He really kept it under the radar.

This is the one that got me interested in Baldwin Motion. I saw this car for sale at Carlisle one year. I don't remember what year that was but it was like it was yesterday. I still have the folded advertisement sheet that the owner was handing out to describe everything about it. Very cool car!!!
