MOTION PERFORMANCE SIGN

[Verne_Frantz]

Cool stuff Joe!
Nothing like getting it from someone who was "there".
I'll wait till Fri. and if a pic of the place "as is" today doesn't show up, I'll ask my buddy to stop by.

I wonder how long that blue and yellow lit sign was up. I swear, I remember that sign. (had my colors backwards though)

Here is a picture of the old Motion shop from last year. I took it on the way home from Joel’s house after purchasing Judith’s (Joel’s wife) Motion Mustang GT convertible.

I just asked Mr.Rosen where either sign is today,he replied,"Loooooooong Gone".

I'm going to take the drive out to Long Island this weekend is Baldwin Chevy still standing along with the Motion building..i'm sure all the colors are different but the shape of the building must be the same that will give me a good idea of the building but those colors !! I want to do the building as it was in 1969 so i'm guesing the photos put up were from that year going by the cars in the shot.
I also want to do a picture of Baldwin as it was in 69 so any help is greatly appreciated

I have some pics that were taken last summer! They show the building very well and will be a big help to you. I'm (with the help of a guy from canada) doing a 1/18 scale diorama of the old building using the same sign design and had Fred Greco take these pics to help me out. I can email the pics to you as I can't get them to post here.

Yes you can email them to me if you have the time That would be great
