Default 1967 Camaro Indy Pace Car License plate

In 100% original condition. Its rough but no bends or dents... I was told this is the plate that was on the 1967 Camaro Pace Car...

very rare ... $450.

I spoke to someone who runs the Camaro Pace Car site (I think), and he told me he wanted an original. He had to get a batch of repops together because he couldn't find an original.

Maybe Charley knows more?

I honestly do not know Marlin. If its not worth anything than I am going to keep it. The guy I spoke to said he had to reproduce exact copies of my license plate because he could not find an original for him and his pace car buddies. Whether it was a novelty item or original item, I do not know.

This plate was originally issued in 1968 to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the Chevrolet Truck.
It was a small way for Chevrolet to express their thanks to the Indianapolis plant,as well as pat
themselves on the back for 50 years of production.
They were not related or meant for the pacecars in anyway.
They can still be found,mostly by technicians and employees who hoarded them back then,as they were given out free.
I think they were also offered over chevy parts counters then,and they were being reproduced not too long ago too.
The one below is a Repop.

Besides the obvious color differences, I see at least those two are different where the the big 1 meets the bowtie...are the repop ones aluminum? .

I wouldn't mind a repop one for my Deuce - being as it's an Indy sold car. I need to donate my 'Back our Boys in Vietnam' plate to my Y-Camaro owning 'nam buddy!
