Maples Chevrolet in Newton, Iowa. That is just 20 minutes north of where I live. They're no longer in business. Boy, that Pace Car sure ventured a long ways from home if you ended up locating it in Texas. Would be interesting to hear about its travels.

I was fortunate to find the original owner of my car and he told a few good stories about the successes he had with it back in early 1970.

My FAVORITE thing about mine was that when I decided I wanted an Endura front bumper to finish off the look. Back in about 1986 I talked a guy here locally into selling me his Endura from his car. I went over and we both removed it from his car, brackets and all (FWIW: it was a LeMans Blue 350/396 car ). Anyways, I got the bumper home, removed the front chrome one and started comparing; it was my 3rd Camaro to this pointe, and first Endura I owned. The story ends that when I compared the brackets from the Endura to the ones existing on my car, they Matched!!!

The original owner verified mine came originally with an Endura when he bought it!

TXSS: Nice Find!!!
