Or, as found on a used car lot in El Paso TX late 80's. Mostly original paint, all original interior, original wheels.

WOW!I just can't imagine what is was like at that dealer back in 69.Shit.I used to get excited when I saw a stock L78 Nova.What a feeling to buy a Phase III Camaro and then go for a cruise to the Connecting highways!Anyone out there that ever did anything close to this?Lets hear the story. <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/drool.gif

What a gem.

That hitch does not look up to the task of pulling another vehicle, but it must have worked.......

I believe that the hitch worked to pull the green Camaro sitting next to it with a tow bar all the way across the country!

Yes that is fact. Probably a good time to look at this thread posted by Mark &quot;dreemz&quot; in 2008 for those who may not know the history of these two great Motion cars. There are also links to Ameila Island show where Mark first debuted his car, and it was the first time both cars were reunited since back in the day.

From 2008 &quot;The Best of Baldwin Motion&quot; (http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/ubbthreads.php/topics/294512/1)

Seen them both at MCACN. The Chevelle is my all time favorite Motion car. If I recall correctly Roberto ( original owner of Chevelle ) GAVE the car to the doorman of a hotel! Dave
