1969 Motion Camaro 454 LS7.

I never knew this was a car that anyone could order if they had the cash.For some reason I figured that the 69 Motion car was only available with a 427.Silly me.I guess if GM had the motor then Motion could install it in any new Camaro they had.I saw the car today in person at our local car show.

WOW!

This was a VERY late car and hence the 454 was available. Invoice is dated June 1970 and delivery July 1970. Only '69 BM car known to have a 454.

Motion would build what you wanted if the parts were available

one 69 Corvette was built with a 482 cu in engine

I believe the 1968 Motion drag also ran a 482

I believe this was the first car Legendary restored on TV when they had a show called Dream Car Garage. I think it was very low mileage, just over 1000 miles? They restored it for a customer at the time. It eventually ended in the Ron Pratt Collection and was auctioned off with all his cars at BJ. I recall seeing Peter the owner of Legendary on TV bidding on the car. Interesting how it ended up back in the hands of the owner of the shop that did the resto.

OK guys edumacate me here - I thought the was a right and wrong way for an SS emblem to be installed and to me the one on the grill here looks kind of odd - is it possible that's because it is mounted upside down or an I just blowing smoke..?
Thanks - I just know one or maybe more than one will set me straight here.

I remember that car was for sale at one of the SCR's that I attended Very neat car and believe it was originally from Reedman Chev. and then modified by Motion shortly after delivery.

My 978 mile X22 also came from Reedman

Amy idea what they are asking for the Yellow BM Camaro?

Running $35 Wal Mart accessory gauges SMH

[ZiggyL78]

Not for sale.

So it's probably pretty expensive.;)

[Born30YrsLate]

Did sell at BJ 2015 for $242k.

Wow, that was a steal.

We had the honor of hosting this car at MCACN in 2015. Marty Schorr mentioned that he had not seen the car since it left NY back in late '69.
