As I recall it was very low geared so not much of a cruiser. I never did use the Nitrous.

Does anyone know the actual number of cars that were converted by Baldwin Motion? A good friend of mine and myself have discussed this over the years and I have never been made aware any numbers.

I'm no expert, so please correct me if I am wrong. Apparently, the cars were converted by Motion performance and then sold through Baldwin Chevrolet. There were cars converted by motion and sold new through Baldwin Chev. and cars that were bought elsewhere and taken to Motion performance and converted later.

So there would be 2 numbers.. baldwin motion cars ..and motion converted cars.... and then the cars that owners bought motion parts and converted themselves. Motion worked on all makes and models thru the years including Ford, buick and even VW's and boats.

I don't think too much original paperwork exists to prove one way or another exactly how many total cars were 'touched' by Motion performance.

I have a documented 1972 Motion Phase III Camaro. I'm at the supercar reunion now. Hope to have the car finished for the reunion next year. Unfortunately ther are no Motion cars here this year.
