Just reading a issue of Hi performace Cars mag April 1972 and they had a story on a 72 chevelle built by joel rosen that was 454cu/575hp,makes you wonder if any survive the abuse.

If that's the article I'm thinking of, it's the one where they 'lunched' the rear end while testing it? ..Makes me wonder too..hehe. That one didn't have any distinguishable outside markings designating as a Motion car. I.E., if it passed through a few owners since then, they probably don't have a clue what they have..that is IF it did survive.

The first Motion car I saw in person was a white w/black stripe '70 454 in Jacksonville (New River)N.C.. The only distinguishing feature was the "MOTION" emblem on the left side of the trunk lid. This was back around 1983/84. Anyone from that area remember or know what happened to it?
