[QUOTE=Tuxblacray] [QUOTE=cj5nutz] I am watching it on myebay, lets see where it goes. I am not ruling it out but I was thinking of a nicer car to start with and maybe doing a body kit and a huge engine in an already met bubba Corvette.
Well lets see, Red with white interior would be HOT. The 427 could be sent out for machine work while the body is off with the frame being completed. Perfect Choice could do the interior real nice.
Uh, I almost forgot. We better ask Suzy what to do before you get carried away. She would definately need to add some input here since she would be a stockholder.
It would be a great way to break that new garge in though![/QUOTE]
That would be a huge project, but so cool to have all put together. I am thinking the perfect color would be either red or white.

I have not mentioned it to her at all as of yet, thought I might spring it on her as the auction gets closer to end

As somebodywho also has a 69 ( with the possibility of a being an L-88) I also have a dead Paper trail on the History of my Car. Same cirumstances too the state of Ohio went to computors and destroyed there Paper Titles in the late 80's. Dose anybody know what he is talking about with the National Insurance Crime Bureau ??? I havn't tryed this Route but I'll be glad to try it if goes anywhere. Richard...
[QUOTE=rearn2go72]...It should be easy enough to verify this car...Rosen still retains the original VIN numbers of all Motion Corvettes....[/QUOTE]
I agree. Rosen has maintained his records and, for a fee, will verify whether the car is actually one of his or a clone.
Think about it: The ebay seller has what he/she says might be a Motion car but won't pony up the fee for Rosen to verify it.
If YOU had what could possibly be a Motion car, wouldn't you verify it, especially so if you were wanting to sell it?

[QUOTE=LukesVette]That's a puny front sway bar for a performance car like a Motion Phase III. Also, these were built as 1/4 mile race cars - notice the A/C housing?

A recent issue of CF has 3 existing motion C3s written up. For those sleuths that want to dig more, that may be a good resource....
Also, here's a good article on a 69 MIII:

I want that hood bad!!!
That dosne't look like the stinger hoods everyone is selling, I'm assuming it's been mod'd right. As far as the one on ebay you would think they would do the research to verify it if really was one or not.

Looks to be an LT1 with the gutter filled in and a stinger scoop added on top. My guess is that they roughed out an original LT1 and made a mold for hand laying the fiberglass....

Looks like the reserve was never met on the first auction. I think he'll probably lower that reserve. 
I know the voices aren't real, but they have some pretty cool ideas...
