Here's one of the -061 Fleet code body broadcast sheets. I removed the identifying VIN, BODY NO and Keycodes numbers cause the owner (assuming this car still exists) may not want the info displayed.

Some things I thought you all might find interesting for the 67 pace cars from my collection.
· The ad proof for the centerfold Camaro ad in the 1967 Indy 500 program
· Pace setter proof ad
· Docs from my 67 pace car, window sticker, protecto plate, Dealer invoice and original finance contract.

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 . . .
