This Camaro Pace Car is one heck of a find!
GM has been one of the biggest participants in the Indy pace car program. With the exception of the few years that another automaker got involved, every year GM would put its best foot forward helping to kick off one of the biggest racing events in the US and hoping to get the attention of the public. One of the most used models is the Camaro and one of the most popular is the first generation examples of the model. Although a 1967 model is probably the rarest, the 1969 Camaro Pace Car is an icon and this one could be yours as part of the upcoming Spring Carlisle Collector Car Auction, April 21-22 in Carlisle, Pennsylvania.
The pace car program was so successful for the Camaro that in 1969 Chevrolet decided to make a run of replicas that could be bought through any dealership. Powering them was a 350 cubic inch V8 Small Block Chevy engine.
It was also designed with an epic paint scheme that caught the attention of nearly every enthusiast - Dover White with Hugger Orange Pace Car Decals over orange vinyl seats with Comfort Weave inserts interior.
