The Motion Vette did indeed sell,& is real money bid by another.This from a Friend of mine down there.He said it's going to stay west now.
Isn't Tony,the one who owns/owned the Motion Corvette,& George is his good close friend?

I think George restored the car and was taking care of all these arrangements around it being at BJ, but he isn't the cars owner. I'm pretty sure he's a close friend of the owner. Another thing to point out is this is the first time a Motion Phase III GT has been for sale publicly this way. And being so few were made and the owners having a tight grip on them, until now there hasn't been anything to base a real "value" on these machines. What do you compare it to?? I think $210k for a nice Motion GT is a strong starting point. The thing about this Gold/Black GT that me and Larry have thrown questions at each other about, is it a BALDWIN sold car with paperwork from Baldwin Chev.?? These days it seems every single Motion prepared car gets labled as a "Baldwin/Motion"..whatever it is.. But doesn't a Motion car sold though Baldwin (a true Baldwin/Motion car) hold a higher value than just a Motion car?? I would think so. So having Baldwin Chevy AND Motion Performance docs on a car would make it worth more than a comparable car that is just a Motion Performance car right? My only question about this GT that just went through Barret-Jackson... is it a "Baldwin/Motion" Phase III GT?? Or is it a "Motion" Phase III GT??
I haven't been told whether it has documentation or not.. Magazine articles and fact of it being used in Motion advertising doesn't make it a Baldwin Chevy car.
Another question would be how much more of a value would a Baldwin/Motion car have over a very similar Motion only car..?? I think guys like Mark Hassett, Dan McMichael and Kevin Suydam would have some quality imput on this question.
not making a big deal about it, just wondering a bit.
