Baldwin Motion Trans Am
Lot#1
The Baldwin Motion Pontiac Trans Am |
The name Baldwin Motion is almost universally
associated with the famous Baldwin Motion Camaros that this company
produced. Some may not realize that the same Motion Performance group
modified a few TAs here and there as well. While the Macho TAs are rare
and the Fire Ams are even more rare, Firebirds modified by Baldwin
Motion would have to be classified among the rarest of rare in the
Pontiac community. I have yet to do a lot of research on these cars so
the knowledge I can impart here is limited but it is my belief that
these particular "tuner" TAs were not widely popular because a common
part of the modification process was an engine swap to a chevrolet
powerplant. I believe these swaps took place primarily because the
Motion Performance group already had a lot of R&D invested in modifying
chevrolet powerplants for big hp gains for the Firebirds little brother,
the Camaro. As I do more research and learn more about these cars, I
willc ertainly continue to update the information I provide here. Of
course I am always open to any information site visitors can provide.
