Default 1966 BM Biscayne....???

Did Baldwin Motion ever sell any 1966 Biscaynes with 427 motors?

1966? Nope. Maybe one modified through Motion as a used car, but not a new one through Baldwin Chev. The program did not get started until 1967 model year.

I agree, BM conversions did not start until 1967. Baldwin Chevrolet may have sold stock L-72 biscaynes through their retail dealership prior to their relationship with Motion.

I have a picture of Joel and Bill Thomas tuning a 66 fullsize car on the dyno circa 1968, cool picture! Motion modified yes, Motion built, no.

I emailed Marty and he said that pic in the book is 1968. Probably the same car you speak of. He recalls some lettering on the front fenders, no other info. Is that the one you have Steve?
