Reggie Fountain also had a Motion Mako Shark

I wonder if the blue 1969 427 Corvette was sent back to Motion to become a Motion Mako , looks like both pictures show blue interior

----No pictures, but I did tow my 16 foot Banshee to Florida from Cape Cod with a 67 350hp Corvette convert in 1970. The car later was stolen and turned up a year later in Alabama. That is a nice Magnum Missile, Lee!.....Bill S
