'74 Motion Camaro on Lost Muscle Cars
 
I was able to get Fritz (former owner) to post about his old Motion.

Could you imagine buying this car when the price of gas just went up 300%? Whew.

Very cool. What’s your friend’s name that was the OO?

Fritz

Does he have any original Motion paperwork to help identify the car?

Unfortunately no. We've tried a couple of different avenues (county clerk, DMV records request) to locate it to no avail. He didn't retain any of the old paperwork. I also saw that Marty Schorr noted Joel Rosen isn't verifying cars anymore.

did the can have any Motion emblems on it when new?

Love it! There's only a few '74 Camaros I've seen modified by Motion. This one looks awesome! Would love to know where it ended up

What was the trans also any word if it had a Hone-OD?
Pipes appear similar style to the ones on Member Thomam's '72 Motion Chevelle as this thread...

Try the Insurance company you insured it through? They keep very good records for a very long time.

What an awesome car. Hope it turns up

69hurstSC 09-03-2022 04:15 PM

The insurance company is out of business. The car sold locally so hopefully someone will recognize it.

Just realized a couple Motion ads I had saved are likely this ‘74 Motion Camaro Fritz had to sell for school.
Interesting is one ad’s from 500 miles away in Macon GA w/ different Ph.#, maybe where he was going to school?:hmmm:
He must’ve driven it there/back or been busy enjoying it as note mileage doubles in the month between ads.
Any updates on this one Wes?
:beers:

That's it exactly, Pete!!

Great detective work, Pete!

I'm surprised the trail has gone cold on this one.

69hurstSC 01-20-2023 01:14 PM

The trails been cold for nearly 50 years.

I put together a display for Mopars in the Park featuring White Bear Dodge sold cars. I had been looking for Alan Page's old '71 Super Bee for about 9 months leading up to the show. We eventually found a very similar car and had it lettered up.

While I was standing at my table a man walked up to me and said, "you know that's not Alan's old car, right?" I said, "yes, i know". He then proceeded to tell me how his best friend died in that car hitting a cement bridge post shortly after buying it off the White Bear Dodge lot.

There's a chance this car never made it much more beyond being sold.
