In regards to the Vega and Spyder querries, I just got this email from Marty.

Hi Chris:
A number of guys have questioned why there wasn't a Vega or '74 Spyder, or other cars in the painting. The answer is very simple: The painting is supposed to represent a Saturday in 1969-1970. Since the Vega wasn't introduced until 1971 and the Spyder was much later, including them would've been wrong.
I worked with David on the painting, supplied color photography of actual cars and David visited Motion collectors. There was some artistic license as well. The results: An outstanding painting and tribute to Mr. Motion and his Baldwin-Motion and Motion Supercars.

Regards,
Marty



I have to agree, this is a great piece of artwork. Thanks to all those that helped to put it together.
