If that paper work is correct ,, that guy has lost his mind cutting that car up,whats the part about the impala conv on there was that a trade in ??

Overlooking the fact that there is nothing left of that car that is Baldwin Motion outside of the bill of sale, he pulled out a 427 for a blown 327......

Hey, It's his car. If he's happy with it this way..... :clonk:

he must have a lotta money (and not much else...) looks like he hacked the heck out of his retirement fund

OHH....NOOoo....

It says on the baldwin invoice that the car had a RS package...yet on his car I see no evidence that it is or was an RS.

Correct me if I am wrong.

Good observation Uncle T - from the one clear pic of the rearend there are no back-up lights in the lower valance but the tail lamps don't look to have back-up lights in them either.

3 bbl Daytona Carb ?? Hope is was a (less then basket case) when he got it

RS items were removed and replaced when it was raced for weight reasons.

That would make some sense.
What doesn't make sense is taking a Baldwin original and chopping it up and turning it into what it is now, when that could have been done with almost any car. Just from a fiscal standpoint it seems somewhat irresponsible.

But hey...one can do whatever one chooses with his or her own car.

Sorry, I don't get it. I thought some local folks who have my old high school car (69' SS 350) were stupid for hacking on it. After seeing this I have concluded that some people are just flat-out retarded. I really had a hard time when he explained how proud of himself he was after all of that hacking.

I bet the REAL reason his girlfriend left was because she found out what he was cutting up.

LOL...that was funny!

"I just can't stay with a man who would chop up a documented Baldwin Camaro....It was like I didn't even know him anymore!"

LOL

Not sure when that web site was put up...but it was 12 years before even that...I would say even 12 years ago that would have been a bone head move..but being around these cars my whole life I have seen a lot of cars hacked up...if the guy had done it 5 years ago I would have to go find him and Barry Bonds him with a baseball bat to within an inch of his life ! I would think that at the current prices , if that car really is what he says , it would be worth restoring...after all look what cloned ZL-1 are going for or the Camaro on ebay at 80k with a Yenko motor from 1972....

This might answer a few questions:
