Re: 69 Motion Camaro
I think the number of ~ 500 vehicles has been tossed about in the past. This would include all years and models. I would be very surprised if it is really that high as these cars were certainly pricey in their day.
Also, who knows if this estimate included just the new conversion cars from Baldwin Chev. and after '71, Motion Performance, or all cars converted in Motion's shop that could have been modified long after they were purchased new.
As far as the number remaining, who knows. It sure isn't many as these cars were primarily built to be raced both on and off the track and led hard lives with few surviving.
The other difficulty is Joel Rosen has kept much of the information confidential and to my knowledge has not shared any real specifics to the public. He has done a good job in closely guarding the cars and the authenticating process as well as the trademark of the name. Probably very few fakes out there.
