Actually, The '82 Pace Car is/was the real Pace Car from the '79 Indy 500. It was painted white and became what could be called the Grand Prix I since it was the first Pace Car for the Detroit Grand Prix. Jack Roush owns the car and it is pictured in the new Fox Body Recognition Guide book.
Maybe some Detroiters could help me here.... 1982 Grand Prix I Pace Car----'82/'79 White GT/Pace Car 1983 Grand Prix II Pace Car---I don't know--Need help figuring this one out. 1984 Grand Prix III Pace Car--'84 SVO 1985 Grand Prix IV Pace Car--'85 Capri/McLaren 1986 Grand Prix V Pace Car---'86 Merkur XR4Ti
F1 ran the Detroit Grand Prix through 1988 but I don't know if a Ford was the pace car for '87 & '88.

The McLaren should have read 'Enduro'. Basically the M81 body mods with a 5.0. The 1981 Hatchback is actually a 79 Cobra... The 82 T-Top is the photo used by Ford to promote the new for 81 T-Top option.... and the 82 Pace Car? Must be from some local race track. Not only did Fond not make a 82 pace car, the 82 GT was not available in white (red, black, and silver only)----- Original Message ----- From: "fourspeed38852" <fourspeed38852@y...> To: <ascmclaren@yahoogroups.com> Sent: Sunday, February 15, 2004 5:37 PM Subject: [ASC McLaren ] 82 ASC / McLaren ???> <A HREF="http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? > ViewItem&item=2460654885">eBay item</A> > > > > Groups Links > > > > >
