Autoweek Story about the 69 Camaro
 
I'm not sure I like this. It might grow on me, but so far it looks like some low rider out of California.

You judge.

I heard that they were going to build these cars. I don't see how they could possibly be considered Baldwin/Motion cars since they weren't originally ordered through Baldwin Chevrolet like back in 60's & 70's. I know Joel Rosen is involved with building them which would make them Motion converted cars, but that's nothing like the original Baldwin/Motion cars. For well over $100K, build one yourself!

My thinking exactly. What you're supposed to be paying for (other than the parts and inflated labor) is the name and authenticity of the car. Yet only half of the original value is there (the dealership isnt involved).

For less than half of that, a truly sweet 69 can be had.

Now if only I had the time, money, skills, tools....
