Did not know that Baldwin/Motion made any convertibles much less a Vette. Can't fathom what that thing is worth!!

Wow, that thing's got some grunt. I love the slow-rolling starts and then just lay into it still boil the tires. I've never owned a big-block car, looks like I might have to remedy that.

I don't believe it's a Baldwin-Motion.

But they did make Vettes. :thumbsup:

Yeah those stripes are similar to the old B/M cars. I think they had a stripe that ended in a point from the rear to the front of the car on each side. Still an awsome Vette!!

I got my start in this great industry working for Bill Mitchell, who himself worked for Joel Rosen as a kid. Bill would always say that the Baldwin-Motion cars were less "assembly line" than the Yenkos or similar. Every car was different and there were no rules. Convertible or coupe, it was all possible. And yeah, they did plenty of vettes.

Some great stories there.....

Either way that's a voluptuous beast!

I think physicians can now write prescriptions for such motors to enhance ones mental and physical well being. ;)

I agree. It seems likely that's the look he was going for. Not forgettable, huh? :)
