Here's some pictures of the Pace car. I just couldn't  past it up. And only 2 hours away in New Hampshire.
For paperwork I got a copy of the original window sticker and an appraisal from 1989. Same owner since about 1989.
Car is optioned with the L82, the M21 4 speed, and the FE7 Gymkhana Suspension.
Just turned 20,000 miles. Original under the hood other than belts and hoses.
Looks like the black paint on the hood and a few other areas was redone.
The mufflers have to go.

She's a beauty alright  The interior looks super nice. I like the Pace cars without the lettering on the doors much better then with it, do you plan to leave it or add the lettering?

Dave, It does look pretty good without decals. I like them, but not ready to drop 300 for a set.
I'm still planning on bringing the Silver Ann to Mystic.  That's still my baby.  Just got the rear end all back together, hope it runs OK.

Jeff, My wife asked the same question, but with a much different tone and look.  Her car is outside right now and I got 3 Vettes and an old truck tucked into and oversize 2 car garage. Come winter I'll be in deep s--t. The blue '80 is going up for sale.

The mufflers are already gone.   I got some nice sounding stock looking mufflers from the silver '78 to try on the Pace Car. Also have a set of Flowmasters I want to try on the silver '78. the '80 got the ones from the Pace car.

Hey Jeff,

Lookin' good, Jeff! That's quite a pair you got there! And its extra cool that you have BOTH limited edition '78s. Enjoy!

Very nice that you can change out the mufflers for the PC. I'm not sure but the Pace Cars might have come with special chrome tips, if your looking to be original. The PC guys should know for sure.

darn Jeff, your a lucky guy, that's a beautiful looking Pacer   Did you get the original remaining stickers with the car?  If so I'd keep them in their boxes.  I don't think 30 yr old decals would hold on very good

No Pace Car stickers came with it. The black has been repainted so maybe they where on at one time.  The repaint wasn't the best, it's a good 10 footer. I like the decals. i just might pick up a set one of these days.
