Indy Pace Car with L89 option
I had someone tell me that GM made 2 pace car '69 Camaro's with the L89 option engine. Anyone know anything about such a thing? These would have to be very rare cars if there is such a thing.

Re: Indy Pace Car with L89 option
The actual and back-up pace car were ordered as L89's but were changed to steel head engines before the race according to what I have read. I don't know if these are the two that were built or if there may be others. GM records would not list the combination of the L89 and Z11 options so someone would have to actually see the cars or paperwork to verify. If there is one, it would be rare.

Re: Indy Pace Car with L89 option
From what I understand there is one that has the original POP and build sheet to document it. What would one of 2 cars be worth? If this car is for real, I would think it would bring over 100K easly.

Re: Indy Pace Car with L89 option
Wow! What is the condition of the car with the POP? Does anyone have any pictures to post to support its current condition. I think a #1 restored car would peek over the 100K mark. If its an unrestored original low mile pacer who know what kind of price tag it could bring. Maxx

Re: Indy Pace Car with L89 option
I'll take a Documented and restored L89 Camaro Rag top for $100,000.00 Z11, X22 or X66.

Re: Indy Pace Car with L89 option
Correct, 2 L89's built for the race.
I've seen one other, with a POP. Seen another, beautiful car but a fake with a new POP. [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/smile.gif[/img]

Re: Indy Pace Car with L89 option
How about an L89 with JL8 Stefano? I've been talking to a guy that has a supposed L89 but the original engine is gone but he has spoken with the original owner who said it had aluminum heads. It definitely has JL8 brakes.

Re: Indy Pace Car with L89 option
Jeff,
It needs more than just a good story before I'll shell out the bucks. I only know of two Documented L89 Rag Tops and I would love to own one, especially with RPO JL8.

Re: Indy Pace Car with L89 option
The car I'm told also has the build sheet. I wonder if someone could fake a build sheet.
The car I'm talking about is for sale and I'll try to get more information on the where abouts.
