Lost Cars

**SamLBInj** · #1 10-31-2005, 04:29 AM

I was talking to this guy down the street and he was telling me a story about a couple local cars that were around here years ago, a 68 Baldwin 427 Camaro and Yenko Vega. Both were in a large garage fire at a local speed shop here in Manahawkin around 1981. I knew both of those cars but never realized the Camaro was a Baldwin Motion car, I know the guy who owned it and I see him once every so often, ill have to check this out further. Anyone hear of this or know about it...

What color was the car? See what you can dig up. Hope it turns up. Good luck

Was the Vega orange? I remember seeing a Motion Super Vega run at Atco when I was a teenager.

Im trying to remember, im thinking it was Butternut yellow but the guy always had black cars including a Baldwin Motion Vette that I almost bought off of him. That vette was rear ended and got one of those weird station wagon backs put on. Anyone know where that one is cause I can get lots of history for it..
