Default Re: 1969 Camaro Pace Car Dealer display

These were also used on the tables at The Winner's Banquet the night after the Indy 500. I have one from that banquet signed by the winner......Mario Andretti. A good friend, (now defeated) who got me interested in The Indy 500 (went 25 years in a row and still get tickets) was friends with Mario and I got to meet him a bunch of times and get in his garage at the track. I was in his garage after he got hit by Kevin Cogan on the parade lap in '82. I also have a '69 Pace Car Promo that I got from my old friend.
Pretty sure Jim Rathmann drove the Pace car that year.
