ad does not mention any documentation

the new ad says

""(((Notice the Poe's Garage sticker on the windshield,,,,,,,Poe's Garage is located on the same street as Motion Performance!)))

In 1974 the car was also placed in storage with 17,020 Original Miles within walking distance of Motion Perforomance! in the Bronx NY,""

according to the Motion history online Joel R started in Brooklyn, NY then

"In 1966, Rosen incorporated as Motion Performance, Inc. and relocated to his own shop at 598 Sunrise Highway, Baldwin, NY."

a search on "Poe's Garage " shows

Poe Garages Auto Repair Shop
2432 Grand Concourse,
Bronx, NY 10458

the decal on the car says "Poe Garages Inc parking permit "

search also shows a Poe Garage parking garage on 800 N. Ashley Dr. Tampa. FL

That ad is laughable .... It seems everything in the list has to have "Motion" in front of it. I think this guy should have the car authenticated before he starts tossing that around. I think a motion-esque look is what they were after, but this story is riddled with inconsistencies [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/no.gif[/img]

Sold for $31k, amazing.

That car did not get a bid with a $4500.00 starting point the first time it was on Ebay...... But that auction had a honest description. Very sad.

Yep...the power of spin. Total bs.

That was one hot car in the 70's I bet. Not much going for it now with engine gone, custom work and no paperwork. I would have loved to have seen it at its prime.....

the red car looks similar but not the same although its hard to say from the pictures but
ebay car looks to have a larger radius corners in the window and over all shape looks different.

Some of the modifications on the ebay car do look like they came from MP.
