Charley has the actual Pace Car I believe. AJ would have received that car but he didn't want it because it didn't have AC. So I guess they gave him another car that had AC.

I don't see the Seller showing any proof it was AJ Foyt's car other than it has A/C.

There sure seem to have been quite a few 67 Pace Cars for sale recently. I always here the number of cars built to be 100, but that seems low given the # of cars that have popped up over the years.

If my memory serves me;wasn't it Mario Andretti who didn't want the actual 1969 Indy Pace car since it didn't have air conditioning? Dave

This auction is a complete can of worms. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/bs.gif The car is very misrepresented. This is an LA built car.



The real Foyt award car was made after the race at Norwood and was 0-1 coded in a batch of cars that were marked for Canadian sale.

The second car for auction - is a good car and well worth considering. (Original Tires on this one https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif)

Are there really only two 67 PC's that came with A/C?

Ya'll are funny sometimes! Interestingly too, as there was another thread here on sYc that discussed the ZZ on a trim tag, here we have a tag with an H stamped up hi into the basic fonts. Anyways,"70 COPO"...LA DID INDEED build these cars and I had a thread here on sYc months ago about LA built cars. Although I am not the authority on what plant AJ's car was assembled at,This car does seem correct to me as the C-1 was used later in the run on these cars, and the one I referred to in a prior post had an 0-1 code on an LA car! That car was a power glide car too alike this one, although when my friend found that one and bought it, it had a complete 4-speed set-up in it! Will have to try to locate that thread again, but...YES! Van Nuys did INDEED build these as well as Norwood!

RPO Z-11,

Yes I know C-1 coded L-181-A Pace cars were made at Los.

The Trim tag you attached is correct. It is Vin #840 and was owned by Jim B. I am a little confused by what you are saying... . Are you saying LA built 0-1 coded 1967 pace cars? If so, I would be most intrested in seeing a picture of one of those tags. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/wink.gif

Thanks

Phil
