george 53 Posted July 29, 2011 Posted July 29, 2011 Guys, I got my Muscle Car Review for August 11. and on the cover is a green 70 Motion Camaro. It looks ALOT like the one on the cover of the AMT Badwin/Motion Camaro kit. Anyone else notice that? It has the same sidepipes, Cragars,and striping, plus the engine looks pretty close too. Just wondered if they were the same car.
george 53 Posted July 30, 2011 Author Posted July 30, 2011 Well actually Mark, you should know the difference was ALOT more than just stripes an sidepipes. I just thought that they looked close enough the same, to BE the same car. Just wondered, that's all.
Steven Zimmerman Posted July 30, 2011 Posted July 30, 2011 Technically,that Camaro is a 70 1/2. The 70 Camaro looked just like the 69 (I know, I owned a Hugger orange,black' halo' vinyl roof,orange houndstooth interior 70). Secondly, George is referring to the drive train,which is what REALLY made a Baldwin Motion....HORSEPOWER ! Available in various degrees of decadent tire-obliterating gobs of Horsepower, most 70 (1/2) Motion Camaros were retrofit with Big Block Chevy 454 Cubic Inch engines. The Motion option sheet was rather large,(and ranged from 'lotta money' to OUTRAGEOUS money'....Anybody remember the Baldwin Motion 454 VEGA ?
