Re: Baldwin motion
Okay, I'm new here. But here's a tid bit of Info on a certain Corvette in a movie. The Corvette in the Cleopatra Jones movie is a 1973 Baldwin Motion Performance Phase III Corvette. Now my question is, how can I find the specs on that car. The reason how I know it is a BMP Phase III Corvette, is because I searched down when the movie came out. That's when I found out about, BMP of Long Island,NY. So with that, how can I find the specs???
Thanks for any help at all!!!! |
Re: Baldwin motion

Re: Baldwin motion
Hi I talked to the third owner again. The strip was painted on !!! (not a decal) He said it was 12 to 14 inches wide and he called it a strobe strip because it started out light green and got darker as it went over the roof and trunk. He also said the color changes were about every 3 to 4 inches.

[/ QUOTE ] "I have a baldwin copo 69 camaro and it has all the tell,tell signs of the motion cars, I was talking to some people that heard that there was one or two copos that were motion cars !! " Reads to me as the OP is saying his car might be a Motion car... not merely a car with Motion mods. |
Re: Baldwin motion
might be a Motion "shop" car, most likely NOT a Baldwin Motion car.
usually we try to steer away from speaking any legaleeze https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...s/rolleyes.gif |
Re: Baldwin motion
I get it that BM cars tend to be more desirable than Motion tuned cars. Certainly there are some exceptions- say maybe a Motion tuned racecar or car with racing provenance. Even a known street racing car tuned by Motion would be pretty desireable to me.
I am very suspicious with this car's association to anything Motion other than some over the counter parts, which is still kinda cool but a bit of a streach to speculate that it actually had any Motion wrenching or tuning done. I agree with Bill, that the OP referencing "tell-tale-signs" is kinda(intentionally?) implying more Motion pedigree than what it may have. |
Re: Baldwin motion
I think that Kurt S is saying, this is a BM COPO.

Re: Baldwin motion
Ok, Baldwin sold COPO.
Not BM? |
Re: Baldwin motion
I spoke to the guy over Christmas. It is definitely a Baldwin sold COPO, which is rare enough. Probably 1 of 2. He has previous owner testament that the car "went through Motion". Now what does that mean? Who knows. Could be anything. Hand-selected COPO by Joel Rosen for Phase III work and re-sale? It still has its original engine, so maybe somebody walked in for a dyno-tune, some sidepipes and traction aids? He is desperately pursuing leads for old pics and first owner.
If either Motion scenario is true, it is a significant car for sure. |
