Re: 1967 Camaro Pace Car
I have to say that I'm amazed about the small block Canadian Pace Cars being without the SS350 package, but I would bet big bucks that someone messed up entering the orders, since they were all human entered back then. Also, by the time someone found out, it was probably too late to build more '67s. Someone at the plant probably thought it was strange, but they were special ordered for Canada and someone probably thought it was for a special run.
Has anyone seen Sear's '67 Pace Car give away car from back then ?? It was a base V-8 Camaro with the Pace Car decals on it . . . A Chevy dealer told me that back then it wasn't a big deal to add those decals and sell it as a Pace Car and get in on the Pace Car hype. No one thought of them as collector editions like we do today . . . I still say that someone screwed up on those Canadian small block pacers . . . https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...thumbsdown.gif |
Re: 1967 Camaro Pace Car
There was an article in Muscle Car Review I think about 10 years ago on the Sears give away car. I beleive it was somewhere in the Carolinas at the time. It was a pacesetter originally but now (then) was sporting the Pace Car decal set. I'll see if I can dig the article out tonight after work.

Re: 1967 Camaro Pace Car
A seemingly legit HOT ROD Pacecar..Oh boy..You know at the rate these pop up ( At least two new ones per year)I wonder how many there really are? https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...s/confused.gif

Re: 1967 Camaro Pace Car
I have VIN's for almost 100 '67 Pace Cars from the Norwood Ohio plant, built between 03C and 04D. About 1/3 being 0-1 festival cars. I also have 34 Van Nuys Pace cars and all of them being C-1 cars. Add the 20 Canadian cars and I would guess that some 300 Pace cars were built in 1967.

Re: 1967 Camaro Pace Car
I have a black and white picture about 8 1/2 x 11 inches in size of ten 67 Camaro Pace cars on the track at Mosport in Toronto for the Centennial Grand Prix . I took this picture myself. I will see if any markings are visible. It rained most of the day.

Re: 1967 Camaro Pace Car
Ok, all this Pace Car talk has me wanting to get my first Camaro back https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/burnout.gif So, what is a one owner '67 Canadian BB (L35) Pace Car worth - "driver" quality now with all numbers, 100,000 miles and had a good deal of previous rust that needs to be properly repaired - floor/trunk? The car needs to be totally restored but it is all there. Also, what is the going rate for Pace Cars these days? Thanks,

Re: 1967 Camaro Pace Car
See that's the dilema I'm in. I want a car I am not afraid to drive on weekends and sunny days. I really only have room for one classic car in my garage. My dream Camaro is in fact the 67 Pace Car, but I also want a 67 Z/28. Heck I'd even settle for an L35 or L78 4spd convertible SS... as long as it has the RS trim package. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ins/tongue.gif But if I would ever buy a pace car or Z/28, I would probably want a "driver" rather than a restored show car, correct?
Oh well... I can keep dreaming for now I guess. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/dunno.gif |
Re: 1967 Camaro Pace Car
Pace cars are as bad if not worse than Z28's. Driver quality 69 Small blocks are going for mid to upper 20's. Big blocks are in the mid 30's. Drivers in my book are better than 5 footers, nice paint and mechanicals, everything works, no visible rust, etc. Really nice versions or either with matching number drive trains can add another 7500 to 10K to those prices. Add more for odd options like Fiberoptics, 8 track, gauges etc.
I would give mine a value in the upper 20's (non matching number motor and trans) (28K probably) as an example. I've seen a few Z11's that look like they came from the bottom of the Atlantic ocean with no drivetrains going for 10K plus on Ebay in the last month. 67's don't come up anywhere as often as the 69's and there are a whole lot less of them so I would assume a driver small block is in the 30K range, big block in the 40K range and nicely restored matching numbers are another 10K. The skys the limit for documented Festival and the real pace cars in either year. |
Re: 1967 Camaro Pace Car
Thanks Mark - I appreciate you taking the time to respond. I'll have to give that fellow a call later today and see what it would take to buy the car https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/beers.gif
