Is it a Baldwin
Hey Guys Big Question
I have made what i think is a big find. a 67 camaro original 8 cylinder coupe car VIN 124377N*******. Its in pretty rough shape, but it does have a red, white, and blue paint job with a long pointed stripe on the side of both quarters extending forward mid of the doors. and it has an extra set of holes drilled in the rear panel, it looks like maybe a motion emblem was once located there. any help would greatly be appreciated. |
Re: Is it a Baldwin
A 67 will tell you what motor it came with on the trim tag. What hood is on it? Does it have any suspension modifications? Extra gauges? Signs of side pipes? Where did you find the car? Post pictures and that would be a big help. What are you intentions with the car?
I hope for you it is that would be great. Rich. |
Re: Is it a Baldwin
the dog house is totally gone along with interior, the car has been setting in the weeds for years. the rear suspension is what appears to be just normal leaf springs and shocks.

Re: Is it a Baldwin
I will be working on the pictures in a few days, i dont have a digital camera myself. I am kinda new to the camaro business, GM for life but never the camaro. After reading about the rare motion cars i spiked my interest. i remembered seeing the ugly paint job on this car a long time ago and just went to see if it was still there. sure enough it was and i bought it.

[/ QUOTE ] All 67 had Mono leaf springs and non staggered shocks... does it have a traction bar all SS, Z28's, and L30 4 spd cars? Also remeber even if it had a small bloack originally or a 325 HP 396 that does not mean that it is not a Motion car. Joel used all kinds of different cars. Run a National Insurance Crime Report on it (if you can) and see where it was sold new. |

The '67's, 68's and most of the '69's did not have Motion emblems and the Motion emblems were attached with double stick tape, so there would not be any holes. The other thing was the paint scheme which is vaugely similar to some of the '70's paint styles. Neither of these give any indication of a Motion car and in fact the opposite. So we have a rusted out 8 cylinder '67 sitting in a field and it might be a Motion?? I always follow up on leads, but this one looks does not even seem promising to start. |
