Rare find - Authenticated 1982 Camaro Indianapolis Pace Car model - one of 366 Pace Car vehicles that left Chevrolet with a 4-speed! This 1 of 366 car was built at the Van Nuys Plant in the first week of March 1982 - almost all Pace Cars were March and April builds.
This car is a running driving project with numbers matching 305 4 bbl and original 4 speed, it has the original 26G Blue and Silver Pace Car specific interior. While the seat covers are a bit ripped and the headliner and a couple of hatch area trim pieces are missing - these can be provided by most any junkyard donor car and the seat covers are available from Classic Industries.
The body is fairly strait but has an issue that the nose has been replaced (likely from a past fender bender) with a base model and will need a Z28 nose piece reinstalled, it also needs love on the drivers side door as the hinge is just starting to sag, also the passenger outside door lock is non working (locks OK from the inside). The door jams are still the original 16U 16L "Indy Pace Car" Silver - but sadly someone sprayed the exterior a non standard white.
I will help with delivery - but I am no expert and the expenses of delivery are up to the buyer. I will expect contact from the buyer soon after the auction ends - my reserve is quite reasonable.
The car is also for sale locally and is subject to the auction ending at any time.
On May-05-13 at 21:09:49 PDT, seller added the following information:
Added: May 13 @ 9:30 Pacific: I have been in contact with a previous owner likely four or five before me - he has verified for me that the Pace Car was 16U 16L "Indy Pace Car" silver when he owned the car and did have remnants of the blue vinyl striping around the lower part of the car at that time.
My reserve is only 2000 and if the car reaches that I will withdraw it from the local market and let this auction play out - I have been a member of eBay for over a decade and have built a good reputation by keeping my word.

Indian tuner turns Chevy Optra into Mustang 'Eleanor' replica
Fri, 03 Aug 2012If you are a big fan of automotive oddities, this may come as a little treat. If you are a Shelby or Mustang diehard, prepare to have your sensibilities violated.
The master fabricators at BigDaddyCustoms are the minds behind what you see above. At first, it appears to be a slightly misshapen custom Mustang, modeled after "Eleanor" from Gone In 60 Seconds, but upon further examination, something appears to be amiss. In fact, the custom shop, based in India, has created an Eleanor replica grafted upon a lowly Chevrolet Optra. While it may take a second for the Optra to ring a bell, you should recognize its badge-engineered sibling, the Daewoo Lacetti, used on Top Gear.
We don't know what star would opt for the Reasonably Priced Car in Shelby's clothing, but it's clearly someone more concerned with the aesthetic than the performance credentials of this automotive mash-up.
Silverado HD, Touareg V10 TDI face off in diesel tug-of-war
Sun, 30 Dec 2012A couple weeks ago, we watched a Chevrolet Silverado get dominated by a Dodge Ram Heavy Duty in a fullsize pickup tug-of-war, but in that truck's defense, Chevy's Vortec gas engine was no match for the torquey Cummins turbo diesel. For our next round of vehicular tug-of-war, a Duramax-powered Silverado HD takes on Volkswagen Touareg V10 TDI.
Now, on paper, putting the Duramax V8's 365 horsepower and 660 pound-feet of torque up against the V10's 310 hp and 553 lb-ft looks like an easy win for the Bowtie, but unfortunately, this battle has a similar result as the Dodge versus Chevy video, with the Silverado smoking its tires trying to move forward as it gets pulled backwards. Put another way: YouTube 2, Chevy Silverado 0.
It just goes to show, though, that big tires, bolt-on fender flares and goofy smoke stacks don't improve your towing abilities. Besides, what did the Silverado driver expect when the Touareg V10 TDI has towed a Boeing 747 in the past?
Pics Aplenty: Meet the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra [w/poll]
Thu, 13 Dec 2012Today was a pretty big day for General Motors, debuting the all-new Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra light-duty pickup trucks ahead of their official showcase at the 2013 Detroit Auto Show. And now that the dust has settled at GM's big reveal event, we've had a chance to snap dozens of photos of the new pickup pair from every angle.
We already told you the important bits earlier today (click here in case you missed it), but let's recap. Under the hood are three new engines - a 4.3-liter V6, 5.3-liter V8 and 6.2-liter V8 (you know, a version of the small-block that'll also be found under the hood of the C7 Corvette), all mated to six-speed automatic transmissions. The 2014 model year marks the return of the Z71 off-road package with Rancho shocks, front tow hooks and beefier underbody protection. Inside, there's a host of new technology and a greater focus on better quality and refinement.
Some of the nitty-gritty specifics (like engine output numbers and fuel economy) have yet to be revealed, and since we haven't driven the finished products yet, it's hard to say how these trucks will fare against rivals like the Ram 1500 and Ford F-150. For now, we can only judge these two books by their covers, and while we do like the designs of the new trucks, we Autoblog staffers are torn on exactly which one looks best.
