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 . . .
