documenting original mileage/Motion Camaro

[JoeC]

rustyhale- Does it have the Motion/Hone overdrive unit on the car or listed on the options sheet?

Joe C.,

I saw the option you are talking about on Otis Chandlers Motion Chevelle, and no my car does not have that option, how does that thing work anyway. I found out some interesting info today, a guy e-mailed me today and gave me his phone number and I called him, he said he worked at Motion performance through 1971, he said Joel's dyno never worked, he charged people for dyno time they did not get, and on some the export Corvettes that he sent to the Middle East he took the 427 out and put in a Camaro that would stay in the states,and put the 396 in the Corvette, hop it up,and send it overseas as a Phase III 427 car.

Rustyhale;
After talking with some friends, is it possible that your BM-Camaro has a ZL1 engine in it? This might explain the high price. Maybe it is just painted orange to look like a iron block?

I'd love to see some pics of your 'new' ride
can you post a couple here?

After going back through this thread I have a feeling this guy was just jerking our chains. The story just seems bogus after you go back and really read between the lines. What do you all think??

Well, it was a good story but you're probably correct.

Whitetop I had been wondering the same thing.
In recent months we have had ZL-1 blocks in barns, friends who have just bought a Yenko and the never before seen Motion. Its a shame he slandered Joel that way.
Who knows what will turn up next.
