Is this the NASCAR pace car that was found in Cleveland, TN (near Chattanooga) or was that a Taledega Pace Car?

Yes, perhaps should have gone in the Cars For Sale section, but I was simply drawing attention to this rare car. I didn't know it survived, and was wondering what other info you folks may have on this.

Would this have had the pole brackets on the rear bumper, or was that just the cars that paced the Indy 500?

Pretty odd option for a pace car?

Just to tease you guys :-)

I would think the Vigilite option would be a great help in a pace car as it monitors the brake lights and shows if they are working, as well as the turn signal/flashers.
