Vette(s): 1972 Corvette Coupe. 350/200 Automatic with PS/PB/PW and A/C. Beautiful Bryar Blue. Unmolested original. Shooting for NCRS Top Flight someday.

My Keith Martin Corvette newsletter came in the e-mail today and it had a video clip from My Classic Car featuring three very rare Baldwin Motion Corvettes. Can't say I care for the Motion GT or the Spider. I like the '74 because it still "looks" like a corvette. The tail end of the Spider reminds me of a 1968 Chevrolet Caprice station wagon Dead

Thought ya'll might enjoy seeing this video.

...and I wonder how those became so "valuable". Definitely not as prevalent as any of the variations of the Carroll Shelby Ford Mustang designs of the '60s/early 70's. Would anything ever have become of them if they hadn't actually marketed them at some of the Chevy dealers back then Question

hmmmm...

Very nice. Yes the '74 L88 is the coolest and the Spider is kinda unique with it being so wide. The rear end tail lights on that Spider remind me more of the '62, '63, '64, & '65 Impalas. They all must be very fun to drive!
