Default Everybody has a Baldwin/Motion Corvette these days

...doesn't look like one to me.. If you read down through the whole sales pitch.. by the time you get to the end you'll have a mental picture of a fast talking used car salesman with plad pants and a bad comb-over..

Anyone familier with this car? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayIS...em=220091007183

Ok I can take the comment on the pants but the com-over is a little to far, and for the record I dont have that much hair.......

I dont know why I would say it has anything to do with Baldwin Motion
(WIDE BODY, isn't that an airplane of some sort?)

unless, of course there may be $ome more ca$h in it for me. Buyer Beware !!!

When I asked the seller, "do you have any documentation or history on this car? why do you think it may be a BaldwinMotion Vette?"



[ QUOTE ]


he replied;

"It is a Cal blue plate car so you can go back to the first owner. It has a complete Baldwin motion body but I removed the reverse gills and installed GM gills it can be changed back the motion gills go with this Vette. It is not a 435 hp engine? The rear wing is not a motion part (Vista Cruiser, maybe?) and it is not installed at this time but goes with. The hood is a GM L88 hood not a motion L88 hood needless to say it is a very nice example of a Baldwin motion Vette. Call me Wednesday and I will give you the vin and tag# So you can check it out Thanks.
John"




dude, pass the crack pipe!

Were the side vents actually seperate pieces as pictured in the ad or were the original vents just cut out and reversed?

-------I hope this doesnt sound negative, but what one thing on this 69 Vette would point anyone towards the conjecture that it was ever near Long Island??? I mean come-on!!!! Hundreds if not thousands of 68 up sharks had those Eckler flairs and front spoiler added. Bodyshops all over the country have been making a living for years taking that stuff off. And the reverse scoops??? Huh??? Looking at the bondo smeared all over the side-scoop area, something else may have resided there at one time, but then again its more likely that the bondo is there for something to do with the flairs. No mention of paperwork. Really, so little pertinent info it is actually comical.........Bill S
