Hi Joe,
As stated above, I already know that the hood ,spoiler, vents and headlight assys were purchased from Ecklers back in 84, When the previous and second owner put them on, which you are correct about the vintage of them.
The rear window flares, gas cap, mirrors and the Motion GT lights, which are still there under the fiberglass, were put on by the original owner, who I was told lived in or around Commack Long Island. I am trying to find him.
Any help with this is greatly appreciated. Hopefully some old Motion fans will remember this car.

I remember seeing a lot of custom Corvettes using Motion parts in the 1970's magazines like Cars Magazine , Hot Cars Magazine , and Vette magazine. Marty Schorr was the editor and featured many cars from the NY area.

Its a long shot, but maybe the car was in Magazine when it was first built

you can find a lot of these old magazines on ebay

here is an example
