Was reading a Hi-Performance CARS Mag (AUG 67 Issue) in which theres a feature on Bruce's 67 427/SS Camaro that he ordered from Baldwin Chevrolet and prepared for Bruce by Joel Rosen at Motion Performance. Mag has some pics but I was wondering if it was still around, would love to see current pics of the car.

Seems as if its not around anymore or just in hiding.

Question on a different car. On the cover of the Oct 1968 Super Street Cars mag it has a pic of the Banzai 510 Cube Camaro with Motion Auto Parts, painted across the rear quarte panels. Would this car be considered a Motion car since it seems to be one of the sponsers. 2nd ?? is it still around???

It seems that Motion did quite a bit of high-po work back in the day to include Oldsmobiles and Pontiacs.
I have always wondered if Joel ever did a new Car Conversion for one of the other local new car dealers.

I know I've seen ads of a Motion/Markeweitz (?) '68 4-4-2 in one of the mags. Maybe someone in LI knows the name of the Olds dealership?

Also, in a 1970 issue of Cars, they tested a yellow and red W-30 that had received the Motion touch.

Wasn't Markowitz the name of the Olds dealer?

It seems Motion was involved with all makes, as he put out performance catalogs for all the brands. I would say there are several non-Chevrolet Motion cars running around the East Coast that have yet to be discovered.

I have a mag where Motion did a super tune on the engine/ignition/suspension on a '69 Mustang Cobra Jet.

I've seen articles and pics on one or two Shelby Cobra drag cars tuned and/or campaigned by the Motion crew as well.

Sorry for the late response. Yeah, Rob, Markeweitz was an Olds dealer, much like Baldwin was a Chevy dealer.

Missed ya at the race. Hopefully you weren't moping all weekend.
