It also has the bow tie badging as well as the cowl induction harness. It definitely has the appearance of a COPO.

Certainly an interesting find.

I have only seen one pic of a Motion car that appeared to be a COPO but it wasn’t yellow and was without style trim.
The pics are from an article in Hi Performance CARS (November 1969) featuring the installation of the Hone OD. It was a 427, auto on the column, 4:56 rear. The article says owner Marc Cohen drove it back to his home in Ohio from New York, and referred to it as a Phase III car. It doesn't really say if it was a Baldwin purchased car or if he brought it in to be Phase III tuned.
