Paint looks awesome. Wonder what that cost back then?

nice photo
looks like it has the C2 front signal light pods
that modification was used on at least one other Motion Maco but not on all of them

Surely you have more current photos of the car, no? We rarely get to see Motion cars and one old photo is just a cruel tease.

Great car.

Am I correct that the car sat new on the lot for three years or am I missing a piece of the puzzle?

Do you have the original wheels? They look awesome on the car.

as part of my documention my 72 had 2500 miles on it when they cut the body off . motion in 1975 by my documention gavea 1200 dollar discount for useing a used car since they were going to cut the body off 2500 miles was no big deal .
