Default Re: Emblems

Joe's response to having a Baldwin Chevrolet sticker was pretty much the norm back in the day. Few people really cared about having Baldwin Chevrolet on their car. It was "Motion" that they were really buying and they usually wanted as many MOTION emblems as possible. The only status that Baldwin Chevrolet had was that they sold cars built by Joel Rosen at Motion Performance and sponsored some of Motion's racecars.

The MOTION emblems were also sold over the counter and via mail order from Motion Performance. They were status symbols of the era and often decorated non-Motion cars.
