Nope, has window frames. Not many T-top pace cars made.

It does.

I've always wondered what happens to your internet life when you die?

They updated the story, for some reason they removed some stuff. It did say that they had to use the jaws of life to get him out.

God bless the guy and his family. He was probably simply doing what we all do with our cars, driving and enjoying it. Things can go horribly wrong sometimes. Guys, be safe and responsible in your cars while enjoying them. Sometimes thats not enough.

Just be safe out there......

Only 19 years old. That is so freakin sad
Was wonderful of the memebers to come up in their Vetts. Corvette community has always seemed a close knit group.

Thats just really sad. Thanks Lynn.

No replica Pace Car sold to the public had T-Tops. Only the 3 that were actually used in the race did.

So my statement was true then, no?

Actually I didnt know if it was 3 or 5 so I went with "not many"

Well ACTUALLY... I think the the 3 cars that were T-Tops were non-registered prototype cars made in '78. So there are technically NO '79 pace cars

LaserSVT · May 24, 2009

I did say "made" not sold

reading comprehension > Double A Ron

EDIT: And they do have vins. It was one of my first questions on here as I was watching some car show and they were interviewing this car collector that only collects rare cars and loves stangs.
He had a 427 cammer and a 429 Boss with 18 miles, just a killer collection and then there was a 79 Pace Car. I thought why have that, its not that rare. Apparently the host thought the same because he said "Didnt they make over 10,000 of these?" And the guy said "yes, but not the T-tops. This is an original pace car and I had to trade a 93 Cobra R to get it." and the car had plates
