Default Documented 1969 Phase III GT Motion Corvette

For all you Super Car fans! You all really seem to be into the super cars so wanted to share this unique car with you.

This is a 1969 Motion Phase III GT Corvette recently documented by Joel Rosen. It is one of one ever made! This Phase III GT has its matching number 427/435 engine with only 47000 original miles.

Original factory options include tilt/telescopic wheel, AM/FM radio,
and factory side pipes.

Motion modifications include: headlights, functional scooped hood, Shelby
side scoops molded into sail panels (the only one ever done like this), side louvers, rear window, fender flares, Dodge fuel filler, rear taillights, traction bar. This was also the only Corvette painted a custom gold lacquer with
unique hood stripes that outlined the functional hood scoop.

The car is currently undergoing a paint restoration to return it to the Motion gold color with black stripes. Everyone was so excited when gold was found on the backsides of the doors behind the door panels. Recently had the opportunity to talk with Gary The Brush. What a great guy. Heís looking through his archives to see if he can find photos of the car.

A picture of this car was in featured in Vette magazine in 1992. I have attached a picture you can see what it looks like.

This car has had four owners. We have been able to trace the car back to
the second owner. It has been in the current owners family since 1971.

In addition to the letter of documentation from Mr Rosen there is also a sworn/notarized affidavit from the second owner.

It was so great to have extensive conversations with Mr Rosen about these
great cars. He was able to give me so much help and information about the car. In our conversations he mentioned he even had a die cast model of this exact car.

The car will be offered for sale in the very near future.

Do you have any info about the original owner being a pro football player? One of his teammates was so impressed with this car that he reportedly went to Joel and bought my '69 Orange/black Baldwin car and had it painted black/gold. Some one called me with this info recently and I may know of the original owners location of the gold/black car.

Two Black and Gold themed Corvettes? Must have been Steelers, right?

I believe this car was offered on E-bay a few months back but did not meet the reserve.

This car was being auctioned on ebay a few months back. At the time of the auction the car did not have a letter of documentation from Mr Rosen.
The auction was stopped before its end date at the owners request after Mr Rosen contacted me. Working closely with him we have been able to determine this is an authentic Motion Phase III GT. Mr Rosen has provided us with a letter of documentation.
