Odd that I can't seem to pull up those 87 Motion Monte pics. I'm assuming you bought it from Joe C in RI, he also had Joel's wife's Motion Mustang if my memory is functioning today. Had a couple of shots of them together outside the shop. <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/dunno.gif

I think there are 3 or so monte carlo's out there.

[gigliotime]

Hi Guys, That is not the car I purchased, My car is a one owner long island car from bast chevy. My friend Mike, who I got the car from brought it to Joel and told him money is no object. I want to blow away mustang gts. 5 invoices later and over a year of building this car, Joel with paint work from gary the local brush delivered this masterpiece. This car was in the nassau coliseum 1990 car show with joel in attendance,and took first place,only time the car was ever on display. The original motor from the aero coupe,a 350 with a supercharger,was put into the car.The last project car built at motion. Its black,it even has a/c. total invoice $30,546.76 Will post pics soon.

[Xplantdad]

If you'd like...send the pics my way and I will post for you...or read the sticky in the Comments area at the bottom of the forum that I made that shows how to post pics!

BTW, my email is [email protected]

[x Baldwin Motion]

Would love to see pics with Joel and the car at Nassau Coliseum, I used to love going to those shows as a kid. <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif

[gigliotime]

I have a picture of the car at the nassau coliseum, Joel is not in the pic. Its the only pic from the show,I also have the first place trophy. I have all the docs and paperwork just have not picked up car yet. Will do this weekend. This is one that was under wraps since 1990. Maybe the most highly optioned motion car ever.

[oboym]

Here is a motion camaro and a motion grand national. I have some monte coarlos on my work comp, i will try to find them

[PeteLeathersac]

Congrats on your new toy Anthony!.
Certainly cool especially if THE last Motion built car!.

Am I understanding correctly that the white pictured Monte is an Aerocoupe and your black car is not?.
Also the engine w/ supercharger from a white Aerocoupe, from this same pictured car too?.

Looking forward to the pics!.

[gigliotime]

Pete, My car is a true 1987 ss black car, no aero coupe, my friend who I purchased the car from had Joel build him a one of a kind monte. Took about a year and a few months to complete. Joel wanted to sell him the aero coupe, but my friend did not like the body style. So the aero coupe's motor was transplanted into the black car,I don't know what motor Joel put back in the aero coupe. hope that answers your question. The pic is a grand national Joel worked on, my car was a total motion build, like I said over $30,000 to complete.

[Martyn L. Schorr]

Hi:
I passed on your comments about your Motion Monte Carlo to Joel Rosen and his response is below:
&quot;I BUILT THE BLACK CAR, BUT IT WASN’T THE LAST CAR BY ANY MEANS.&quot;
Sounds like you have a neat car. I never saw your car when Joel was building the Montes but did get a ride in his white Aero Monte and it was fast. You might want to get a documentation letter from Joel regarding details on the car including the engine history.
Marty

[AutoInsane]

Pictures please!!!!

[Xplantdad]

Marty...the way I read his post was that he said it was the last car done in 1990....

I could be wrong though <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/beers.gif

[PeteLeathersac]

I'd thought the exact same thing at first too Bruce but noted his second post included <span style="font-style: italic">&quot;...The last project car built at motion...&quot; </span> so the reason I had 'especially if THE last' in my own posting..

VERY cool car either way!!!
Looking forward to the pics also more details of the engine!.

[Xplantdad]

Ah...I see. I missed that <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif

[old5.0]

Either way, I wanna see this beast. <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/cool.gif

[gigliotime]

Hi Marty, Just to respond to your post. I have a full 5 page invoice, Joel knows the car very well. The aero coupe motor was transplanted into my car. He wrote the invoices himself, motor from Mr Motions white aero coupe . From what my friend told me this was the last project car that motion did, I mean 31 grand thats a lot of dough in 1990. In any event this car is as documented as they come. I even have a pic of the car at the motion display at the Nassau Coliseum in 1990 which it won first place, and I have the trophy. When I get the car at my house and figure out how to post pics I will do so.

[Martyn L. Schorr]

I don't think any of my comments questioned the authenticity of your car. Joel acknowledged that he built it. He was questioning your comment about it being the &quot;last MOTION car.&quot;
According to him, it's not.
Hope you can post pix when you get it.
Marty

[gigliotime]

Hi again Marty, I did not think you questioning the car. I was just telling the board what my friend told me. He did not say it was the last car worked on at motion, He said it was the last car of this magnitude that motion built. Does not really matter to me anyway. Will post pics when car is here.

[Martyn L. Schorr]

Hi:
Please let me be clear about both mine and Joel's comments. No way was anyone dumping on your car. The question was only about &quot;the last MOTION car built.&quot; Your response was: &quot;He did not say it was the last car worked on at motion, He said it was the last car of this magnitude that motion built.&quot;

We are not talking about cars worked on at MOTION. Joel simply said it was not the last MOTION car built, nothing to do with cars being worked on in the shop or magnitude of cars.

I suggest that you write to Joel to determine if your car was the last MOTION Monte Carlo built. That would be great provenance to have with your car.
Marty

[gigliotime]

Marty, Thats a good point, im pretty sure it was the last monte built. I think, but I could be wrong, there was only two mine and the white aero coupe. Just a thought.

[Martyn L. Schorr]

I know your car was built after the white Aero Coupe. However, I believe there were others. Joel can tell you for sure what the count was, but there were more than two.

[RPOLS3]

If memory serves me correctly there was an article on this car back in the day in Hot Rod or Car Craft..... <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/dunno.gif

[gigliotime]

Yes, That is my car. I will post more pics of the motor and rest of car when time allows.

[gigliotime]

That is just how Joel built the car, even down to the tires.

[oboym]

your right

[owners2]

Wow that's a pretty serious change. Looks like the yellow cars doors where super modified &amp; then looks like originals in the maroon car pic.

[PeteLeathersac]

Looks more like the yellow and red cars are the same aside from paint colors but the burgandy one may actually be a different car altogether?.

[gigliotime]

Thanks for the invite, will have to give it some thought.

[motionwannabe]

No Pete the yellow car and the burgundy car are the same. The red car is another car that was built after the yellow cars mods were added as a package from Motion. The Yellow MOTION Iroc-Z was the first built that way. I believe aside from the bright red one there is a white one and a black one. Ill have to do some digging to see if I can find some pics of the black one and the white one

[owners2]

Post some pics of the black &amp; the white one please.

[motionwannabe]

Heres the white one. Im still searching through pics to try to find the black one.

[gigliotime]

You won't find any pics of the black car its been under wraps for years, my friend is not into car shows. Never showed the car except for the 1990 nassau coliseum show, and I have the only pic from that show. He just drove it, never showed it.

[owners2]

Wow, i had my 71 RS Z28 in the 1990 Nassau Coliseum car show I haven't look at my pictures in years but know exactly where they are. I will look through them tom. &amp; will even check the backgrounds really well for the Black Motion Camaro.

I have hoardes of MOTION photos Ive saved that I have to dig through.

[gigliotime]

Its a black motion monte carlo your looking for, not camaro.

[owners2]

Thanks for letting me know its a monte carlo. Is there any funky striping or lettering on the car?

[gigliotime]

Yes it has funky striping on the sides, one of the wildest motion paint jobs ever. Done by Gary the local brush. Almost like an art canvas.

somewhere above the conversation has mixed a Camaro with a Monte Carlo . references such as &quot;the black one&quot; and &quot;the red one&quot; may have added to the confusion. not trying to hijack the thread, but that ship may have sailed <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/wink.gif Two individuals are looking for pictures of different cars, it will all wash out in the end when all pictures are posted. Thank God spring is near <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif

[owners2]

Checked my Nassau Coliseum car show pics &amp; didn't see any black camaro or monte carlo in any pics or backgrounds. Damn , sorry guy's. Yes there was confusion on which black car. We were actually discussing the black camaro when it got twisted to the black monte &amp; the car show.

[gigliotime]

Like I said you won't find any more pics of the black monte. I have the only pic of the car at the coliseum.

[JoeG]
