I got one from Central Chrysler-Plymouth in Burlington NC when I was a kid. Service Mgr gave it to me when I was asking him if Sox&Martin got their cars from him. He gave me a Superbee rear fender decal also. I let them go 35 yrs ago when I quit playing with cars. I've only seen one other since, on display at Carlisle a few years ago. I scored one a few years later. Now I see Steve Juliano had one. Stealing pics from his estate auction. After seeing his collection online, I almost contacted him to offer it for free. But now he's gone and so is his collection. Anyway, I think this is pretty cool. But... I don't own a 1969 Mopar, at least since 1976 or 1977. Anyway, just wanted to share. I've been told it is easily one of the rarest pieces of Mopar literature. Heres a link to the one Steve's estate sold. https://www.autopaper.com/1969-plym...ochure-hemi-road-runner-gtx-440-race.php

I have that one and the '68, they're really cool. Can't recall seeing any others in a LONG time. I heard there's a '67 version, too. Cool! I've only seen Vol 1 and Vol 2. Thought V1 was the 67 but i'm not an expert.

I think the Motion 2 hits a really good sweet spot in Collectable Mopar Literature.
The 1969 model year was the highest sales for the Road Runner, so there is a built-in market of owners looking for brochures to go with their cars.
Both the Motion 1 and Motion 2 brochure interiors are quite similar. They invite you into a secret lair where only people like Sox & Martin, Paul Goldsmith, Richard Petty, and maybe you can play. I think these brochures are really effective in that way.
The Motion 2 brochure is so less common than the standard Belvedere or Barracuda brochures, so 1969 owners seek it out, and pay a premium.
Personally, I find the Motion 2 cover quite depressing. The context of it's reference to drugs, also found in some other 1969 Plymouth art, turns me away from it. I want to feel normal and happy, not sad and hung-over.
