70 BALDWIN MOTION CHEVELLE
 

Remember the supposed 70 BM chevelle for sale in Tucson recently that was discussed here? I was informed it was indeed a real car and was sold to someone in GA. Anyone confirm this?

Would this be a white one from NJ? If it is the owner worked at my Dad's gas station in the late 70's early 80's.

Joe, your Richies son??? I was a young punk hanging around with the kid's who worked for your dad. I was a freshman in high school in New Providence and was good friends with all those guys. I don't know if you knew any of them... Grant, Steve, Alex with the chevelle in question and a few others.

How is your father and does he still have the '55? Man that was a sweet ride. It was the first car in the area to have a nash 5-speed.

I used to love going to your dads Gulf station and seeing all the cars.

Do you remember any other cars from the area. I remember Alex's motion with the 5" snorkel scoop w/ "WHITE LIGHTINING" painted on it.

Re: 70 BALDWIN MOTION CHEVELLE
 

My understanding is the new owner got a letter from Joel a couple months after he bought the car from you and not a few days as you stated. New owner also found out the car went to Baldwin Chevrolet. Before you spend a bunch of money on Attorneys you might double check where you are getting your info from.

Re: 70 BALDWIN MOTION CHEVELLE
 

If what you say is true that is a real crappy deal you got.Whether it was one one day,month,or year later that the docs show up that shouldn't matter.Something smells fishy.........

Out of curiosity, was the guy's name Alex or Alexander who worked at your dad's station who owned the Motion Chevelle? Also, was the station near the Cherry Hill area?

Thanks,

Was Alex's car a 70 B/M Chevelle? Do you know what happened to his Chevelle or any of its history?

Thanks,

Re: 70 BALDWIN MOTION CHEVELLE
 

I know it was a motion car. I was only 8 or 9 years old but rember the "motion" badges on it. I don't think he was the original owner..He was 17 or 18 in 1980. It could have been a car that was motion modified. My dad tells me that there were a few motion modified cars in the area in the early 70's.

Re: 70 BALDWIN MOTION CHEVELLE
 

jtower , are you talking about the Motion chevelle in asbury park?

Re: 70 BALDWIN MOTION CHEVELLE
 

I don't think so. This car was from Berkley Heights or New Providence.

Kind of old, but does anyone have contact with Alex, or have any photos of the Chevelle?

Re: 70 BALDWIN MOTION CHEVELLE
 

No. I was talking to one of the guys who worked for my dad and he said he lost contact of him after he went into the Marines. I ripped my moms house apart looking for old pictures of the gas station but turned up empty handed.

Re: 70 BALDWIN MOTION CHEVELLE
 

Oh that's too bad. It is such an interesting story. You know your folks took pictures. It just happens, they get lost. Thanks for the reply.

Does anybody know how this story ends? Was the car documented? If so, does anyone know anything about the car?

Thanks
