Cool history on this pace car. I do love hearing these stories behind the cars. Excellent restoration work Steve. Awesome!

And the Camaro wears "Indy 500" tires!
Exceptional car! Steve must get a crowd around the car when he parks it.

I'm not an expert on the SS350 cars but I'm surprised it doesn't have the Z28 style valve covers. I thought that was part of a dress up package and this car has a lot of options as a display car so I thought it would have them. Nice car Steve.

Great story, Steve. Gotta love the car being "stalked". Super nice job on the resto. I love the rare seatbelt package.

Very nice car Steve. Looks brand new. Has the original owner seen the car lately?

I've been keeping in touch with him and sending him updated photos. His daughter never forgave him for selling it. She's thrilled it's back in their life again, even though it has a new caretaker.

The 350/300 engines never had the aluminum valve covers from the factory. Stamped steel only, though a lot of people put the Z28 valve covers on for looks.

Beautiful car and incredible stories behind it, Steve. Love those vintage pics

And what on earth makes you think you can prove Show Judges to be wrong just because you have original photos and factory documentation We all know the judges are the Ultimate Truth
