number of guys on her that have a motion car
 
Since this is the Baldwin-Motion section , I was just wondering how many guys who are ever on here, have a Baldwin Motion car ? And what ones they have. Mine is a dark green 1969 SS 427 Camaro.

Have owned 5 Baldwin Motion cars ('67 Chevelle 427, '68 Camaro 427, '69 Camaro 427, '70 Chevelle 454, '71 Camaro 454). Still have one ('69 Camaro 427). Greatest muscle cars ever built IMHO.

I say, if you own or owned one.....you ALL must place a picture of each one on this thread.

If you do not know how to place a picture.....we will help.

67 SS 427 Baldwin Motion Chevelle 1 of 1.

427 with AL heads, M-20 4 speed, and 4.88 Gears. Ran 11's new and later 10's with tunnel ram, and clutchflite trans. One of the most documented BM Car in existence as far as original paperwork and vintage magazine articles from back in the day.

Charley, What was that second gen Motion Camaro like to drive? I love that car.

Charley Lillard 05-30-2017 08:39 PM

As I recall it was very low geared so not much of a cruiser. I never did use the Nitrous.

Does anyone know the actual number of cars that were converted by Baldwin Motion? A good friend of mine and myself have discussed this over the years and I have never been made aware any numbers.

iluv69s 06-01-2017 12:47 PM

I'm no expert, so please correct me if I am wrong. Apparently, the cars were converted by Motion performance and then sold through Baldwin Chevrolet. There were cars converted by motion and sold new through Baldwin Chev. and cars that were bought elsewhere and taken to Motion performance and converted later.

So there would be 2 numbers.. baldwin motion cars ..and motion converted cars.... and then the cars that owners bought motion parts and converted themselves. Motion worked on all makes and models thru the years including Ford, buick and even VW's and boats.

I don't think too much original paperwork exists to prove one way or another exactly how many total cars were 'touched' by Motion performance.
