Default Looking for Information Motion Chevelles

Hi all,

Was wondering how many (if any) 68 Chevelles were done by Motion. Pics on the web seem scarce and I've already searched the forum without any luck.


Any information would be greatly appreciated.

TIA!!!

Bob

Thank you Pete! Would be cool to know what color it was but the article said the owner didn't want that divulged. Would also love to read the rest of the article. Maybe Marty Schoor can remember and chime in. Looks like a dark color so maybe black?

Wonder if anyone knows of any others?

Here's the rest of the article below, note the Motion T-Shirt on the tech leaning forward pic.
I have some Black '68 Motion 'Velle pics in my system I'll post later too, same or different car?

There was a black 1968 Motion 427 Chevelle built and painted and letter as the "Mr Motion" drag car.

This car is also an Ertl Die cast model and the original pictures of the car were used to make the model

Joel worked with Ertl to supply original pictures and information on some of the Motion die cast car models

Thanks JoeC.

Interestingly, the reason I was asking is because I collect 1:18 die cast and I know a guy that works with AutoWorld. I'd love to see AutoWorld make another '68 Motion Chevelle and they are interested in making real cars, not "what if" cars that might have been made.

So . . . . was there only 1 documented '68 Motion Chevelle made?
