Default Re: Baldwin Motion chevelles

I'm down with restomods done in a style that appeals to you , whether its Yenko/Motion/Shelby or whatever. That's kind of the best of both worlds: gets you a car you've always wanted, but modern performance. Plus there's no appearance of forgery. I'm kind of mystified when people clone something and get down to casting numbers, dates, etc. Or do it to "concourse" level. It makes no sense, building a perfect and correct fake (oxymoron) and invariably ends up costing as much or more than the real deal.

But a Motion styled 502 EFI '70 SS Chevelle with Global West or H-O suspension and 12" brakes sounds like a ball to me. I think some of the new 17" Cragar S/S would add to the outlandish Motion style and add a modern bent as well.
