Is the 71 Hemi Convert the $1mil ex Dennis Tuttle car?

Re: Supercars' additions
 

That's the "other" blue 71 hemi ragtop Cuda, the "drug dealer auction" one.

Re: Supercars' additions
 

The ex-Milton Blue 71 Hemi 4 speed Conv is owned by a fellow in Peoria Ill. Dennis was representing him at the purchase from Milton and now during re-sale. Not re-sold yet as far as I've heard. A couple guys trying very hard to get it though.

Mine is the other Blue 71 Hemi Cuda 4 speed Conv. It was seized from a drug dealer in the NorthWest here, and then auctioned by a local Police Department nearby. Anyway, these two Blue 71's had been referred to as being the only two 71 4 speed Hemi Cuda convs built. That was until another 71 Hemi Cuda 4 speed Conv surfaced overseas, referred to as the export 71 Hemi Cuda 4 speed Conv. The noteworthy part about my 71 Hemi Cuda Conv, is that it retains it's full original motor and drivetrain, whereas the other blue one doesn't.

Kevin;
Wasn't one of the Hemi conv. Cudas a silver/gunmetal gray color?

Your '69 Motion Nova didn't receive stripes like the other motion cars? It appears that the Novas may not have, the export car didn't, Rich's car didn't, and yours may not have as well? Cool car, any vintage pics of it?

Re: Supercars' additions
 

Marlin, yep, the export 71 4 speed Hemi Cuda Conv was grey.

Have vintage pictures of the B/M Nova, but later in it's life. I've talked to the original owner who bought it new from Baldwin, but didn't ask him about stripes. It is still titled in his name with title showing car purchased from Baldwin Chevrolet. Also have the Baldwin POP, Motion invoice, along with letter from Joel. I'm not sure, but I don't think paint/stripes were always put on the Motion paperwork. It is supposed to have a Black Vinyl top which I hope to get installed later.

I have seen another Landy Dart at the Mopar Nats that is already restored. Did he campaign two cars that year?

Re: Supercars' additions
 

Kevin, how did you find the Motion Chevelle? Your collection gets more amazing by the day! When does the museum open????

Re: Supercars' additions
 

Dave, Yes he campaigned two cars. The other one is an automatic belonging to sixtiesmuscle Mike and mine is a 4 speed.

The Baldwin Motion Chevelle was found by someone other than me, and I obtained the photo with the purchase of the car. When I bought it, it was already in process of restoration.

Re: Supercars' additions
 

Kevin, would you mind sharing some of those other pics of your Motion cars that aren't on your website with us here?
