Got out of the Army in 1968, started working for Motion in 1969 building the Baldwin-Motion 69 Camaros and Corvettes! Still great memories especially Joel Rosen doing a 2 block burn out on Sunrise Highway in front of the shop....Lots of options available from Holley 3 barrels, Carbs, cams, headers, gears, and dyno tune! Back in the late 60's through early 70's 11 second street cars ruled!

In your time at Motion, do you remember any non-GM cars coming through the shop? I had a customer with a black '71 HEMICUDA with Motion badges saying, Motion Cuda. There were receipts from Motion for miscellaneous things, like Sunoco 260 gas, etc. Just curious. This was in the 90s. My customer was a chiropractor from New York.

That 427 sounds sweet! Here in Australia (south Australia) A supermodified (precursor to sprintcars) owner , Kevin Fischer, got his hands on a genuine 427 L88 engine, put it in his machine, and nothing could touch it! Look up Bill Wigzell and "suddenly". Bill was the driver. A youtube video of the 1974 Grand Annual Classic at Warrnambool has the thing literally setting the right rear tire on fire from wheelspin!

Hi Nick and George, I'm a little late for the party today, a combination of a little bad weather, and no internet. I have been waiting for the road test on The Yenko Camaro, and it didn't disappoint, an awesome tribute car, that has plenty of power, and will be a blast to drive. Tony has a winner for sure. Nick I'm glad to see that you replaced the 3 bbl carb to cure the stumble when you hit the throttle. I had a 3bbl Holley on the 500 back in the day, and it didn't run that well, so I went back to the 3310, and it ran much better. I still have the 3bbl sitting on a shelf in my garage, just a decoration now. A great video, that I enjoyed very much, especially all of the different camera angles during the road test.

Back in 1970 a work buddy traded his 69 GTO for a genuine Yenko/SC Camero and he took me for a spin down the highway and then he let ME drive back. Slamming gears on a big block is a unique experience, my neck was sore the next day. I am a Mopar man all the way but that Yenko/SC is the real deal. You have to keep your wits about you and really watch the road. We were doing a 100+ both ways! Another outstanding ride Nick!👏👏👏😎👌❤️

That stumble in the carburetor reminded me of my first car. The engine was a 352 T-bird engine with a model 4100 Autolite 4 barrel carburetor. It used venturi vacuum from the primary side to open the secondaries. When I started driving it, the engine would almost stall when you stomped on it. It took a while to figure it out but what was happening was that the secondaries were opening too soon. The linkage on the vacuum pod was set up where the secondaries weren't opening all the way either. Once I corrected that I nearly lost it the first time it worked correctly. Also if you stepped on it where it didn't burn rubber you could hear the secondaries kick in at about 30 mph. It was one of the 2 engines I've owned that truly scared me. The other was a 350 Olds Rocket.

There are people all over North America that take their cars to Nick. And yeah, these cars, in this condition are far more expensive now than they were new. They are very rare today and the value goes up every year.

Back in those days, any kid with an after school job and parents willing to sign the loan note could buy a pony car or muscle car... $2-3,000's new...

15 years ago I sold my 1971 camaro I built in 1986-1992 and put $150,000 into it with a dyno tested super charged 572 that made over 1600 horse power and a dougnash 5 speed with a mc gleod triple dish clutch with a hydraulic throw out bearing, and a Dana 60 rear end with 456 gears!!!!! This thing launched so hard I would put a $100 bill on the dash and if you could grab it when I was in any gear you could have it,, but nobody ever could!!!!,, I loved that car and I only drove it on the street in Lancaster pa, and I sold it because I was in a bad accident and needed money to pay medical bills and it was red and white and there's a you tube video of the guy who bought it 15 years ago!!! A red and white 1971 camaro 572 in a big garage and some young guy and girl were filming the guy driving off in my camaro!!!! I could kick myself to this day!!!!

They look good, but its hard to beat a muscle car, running steel wheels that match the color of the car along with dog dishes. The perfect car imo (my dream car) is a 1969 COPO Chevelle, Hugger Orange, matching orange steelies, and dog dishes. Then to put the cherry on top and class it up a little bit, a black vinyl top. That car will be heavenly to own, when I hit the jackpot and actually get to build it! Hahaha

Excellent work George. Great video. Sometimes I just feel old watching these videos, but I feel fortunate to have owned cars of the muscle car era. That engine bay and the look of that Camaro is gorgeous. Have a great week everyone.

I had a 396 1970 Nova ss and it was a blast in a straight line. Not having power steering, it wasn't nice to turn, but I should have put one in. I kick myself for selling it, but it was rough. This Camaro sounds just like it. Brings back good memories. Thanks for sharing Nick.

A beast! My dad had to out-do my uncle in his '68 Firebird so dad ordered a '69 Camaro RS/SS L78 4-speed with every box checked. He was afraid of the alum on iron L89 with no more factory hp. That was the year their pissing contest on land ended, started with inboard boats. Beings dad nor I were into GM it never was driven much and was to be mine at 16 in '72. He seen the way I was driving the '62 Galaxie 406 I'd talked the local bankers wife into selling to me instead of trading so 3 weeks before my 16th it disappeared out of the shop. Someone got a sweet 3 year old car with less than 3K miles, I had the '62 and bought a '64 Barracuda and dropped in a 340 built for a dirt track car-two people were happy.

@@ryangulley2051 You may want to ask some that even pulled cars to town to run against me, that left with empty trailers how much I liked slow cars. I never even sat in the seat of a car I won, sold em on the spot. Take your hurt feelings about late 60's gm crap to your safe spot and pout away.

Giasou Nikola & to all the gang, The bug eye Camaro, that is one mean machine. You just can't imagine buying a Yenko Camaro or a Nickey Camaro with a L88 brand new especially with cross ply tyres on them. Beautiful tribute absolutely spot on you did the Camaro justice Nikola. You have some great neighbors doing what you do. Now we have this new law here in Nanny State Victoria, if you are watching someone doing a burnout you get a $ 400 fine because you are in couraging the bad behavior that's how bad it is here. I wish I was over in Toronto to join you & the gang at Motorama. Thank you Nikola for the 440 road signs they are awesome. I hope to exhibit my Hardtop on the Queens Birthday Weekend in June at the Mid State Mopar Show together with the road signs will keep you posted. Your number 1 Fan in Australia Louis Kats from Melbourne Australia ☺ 👍 ❤
