Default Re: Baldwin Chevrolet and Motion Performance

I asked Joel about close date of Baldwin Chevy and he can only remember that it was around 72-73. Going by old magazine ads I have a 1972 ad still
listing Baldwin Chevy as pick up point so it had to be late 72 or 73.
I tried the Baldwin library and town clerk. I even went to the town
clerk and tried to look it up but did not find a close date.
I did find that someone kept the name Baldwin
Auto registered into the 80s but I think they just sold used cars.
I have a car Joel built called a 87 Motion Monte Carlo SS Iroc Aero Coupe with supercharged 350. Joel bought the 87 Monte Carlo new from Lion Chevy in Baldwin NY but said they were only
in business a short time and there was another dealer in the old Baldwin
building before then.
