L78 M22 Pace Car Restoration

[bergy]

Question for the group - my understanding is that there were 3,675 1969 Pace Car replicas produced.

- Does anyone know (or has anyone estimated) how many of those Pace Cars came from the factory with the L78 engine? (my estimate is 61)
- do we know how many L78 Pace Cars survive today? (my estimate is 20)
- Of the surviving L78 Pace Cars, how many L78, M22 Pace Cars survive today? (my estimate is 1 or 2).

We are preparing the Pace Car for display at MCACN 2022, and want to make sure that we get the production/surviving numbers as accurate as possible. It's also important that the numbers include only factory documented and/or certified cars.

Any help would be appreciated.

If Jvrdcall, Kurt from CRG said there were 4 or 5 M-22 pacers known.
