Here is a picture on the car on the trailer , just after I made it home. Notice the rearend cover. The intake is an after market unit that had the plenum divider cut out near the rear for a 3 barrel carb. When I found the guy who owned it in the 80's he said it weird traction bars on it at that time.

Maybe "3350" was a Motion Performance work order #?
Is this a common trend throughout all MP cars?

It's amazing how little information there is on how to document Motion cars, other than Joel. Is the information there, and people are very guarded with it? m

If there were more cars from which to draw conclusions it may be easier to id them, but as it stands there were so few built (plus very few were alike, because they were built to customer spec) that it would be awfully hard to draw conclusions and apply them uniformly across the board.

In conclusion there is just not enough data to make a statistical analysis.
