Needless to say after losing his license his father took the car from him , and eventually is was sold or traded towards a Custom Chevy van


That would be this car.

Yep ! that's it !!! When he would be out raising hell the local cops wouldn't even chase him anymore, they would just go park across the street from his parents house and wait for him to come home. Or the time we drove it round trip from Manheim to Atlantic City and left the valet at the Playboy Club park it . Or the time etc...

I was a valet at the Tropicana and can recall seeing that car drive by me on Pacific Avenue; nearly broke my neck turning to check it out.

Without question the best looking second generation Motion car I have seen. I can't imagine ever owning that car. Must have been quite the car in it's day; very intimidating.

I have been looking for years for the issue of Hot Rod that had the article on Car village in it . And had the Motion Camaro as the Lead photo to the story. I was either a sophomore or junior in HS so I'm assuming it was 1980/81? If somebody could share a link or at least what exact issue that would be great !!!

I had that magazine back in the day but, probably threw it out years ago. Of course I save all of my old car magazines now.
