Re: 1969 DOCUMENTED BALDWIN MOTION CORVETTE
Looks same Corvette that was on Team Camaro
 . This one was located near Dayton, NJ. If so, a friend met with a fellow , named Bob, who was selling it for the owner and looked it over pretty good. Vin # 194379S717xxx has Cure Ride shocks, center traction bar, dual Holley fuel pumps & probably has the original paint. No engine, trans or interior. No tank sticker, build sheet, badging or vintage pics. Didn't get to see the title either. We were told (by Bob) that the person who actually owned it contacted Joel, but Joel would not verify that it was one of his cars, so we passed at $25K. So, I guess the million dollar question, or in this case a $275K question, is 'what kind of factual documentation does Joel have on this particular car?' And, 'why wouldn't he verify it for the past owner?' I realize that since I did not speak with the past owner directly about his conversation with Joel I'm sticking my neck out by posting this. But, I have yet to be convinced that Mr Rosen currently has any documentation, like work orders, on any of the recent cars he has verified. Hell, I'd feel better if he'd flown to the car's destination & visually inspected the car instead of (apparently) just looking at some pictures.

Re: 1969 DOCUMENTED BALDWIN MOTION CORVETTE

Re: 1969 DOCUMENTED BALDWIN MOTION CORVETTE
I thought that Joel provided paperwork or something when he verified cars... I would think that with an asking price of 275k this would be shown or at least mentioned? Not just a mentioning that the car has been verified by Joel. Also was the car delivered to Baldwin, sold then modified by Motion or was it delivered to Baldwin, modified by Motion then sold.. thus being a Day 1 Supercar? None of this is very clear...

Re: 1969 DOCUMENTED BALDWIN MOTION CORVETTE
I grew up around Dayton, NJ. It was a very rural area and all the car guys knew of each other and their cars. I never, ever ONCE heard of or saw this car in the area. Believe me, if that car had surfaced once, we all would have known about it.

Re: 1969 DOCUMENTED BALDWIN MOTION CORVETTE
How about some more history on the car?? What paperwork is there on the car? What Balwin Motion / Joel Rosen documentation is included with the car?

Re: 1969 DOCUMENTED BALDWIN MOTION CORVETTE
What happened to the seller of this car? It was listed here 1 1/2 months ago and the owner hasn't been heard from since then.
