Thought I would share this with the group, sounds like a well documented real car someone may like for themself. To rich for my pockets.https://madison.craigslist.org/cto/d...312278116.html

 

Very nice, but 1970 Pace Cars were done by Oldsmobile, not by Hurst. Hurst did the 72 and up pace cars.

Wonder why it has just the Tic-Toc-Tach, and not the Gauge package on the left side of the dash. They weren't separate options

 

Thanks for the info I did not know that. Good to know. I tried to edit the title to be more accurate without success.

 

Unfortunately only Mods and Admins can edit titles. Fixed it for you.

 

Thanks Joe. Read part of your posts of the swap meet and show hope it was all good for you.

The ad begs some questions. The noted tach-only for one. This quote from the ad for another:

Uh, of the 628 1970 pace cars, ALL of them were convertibles. 264 were 442s, the rest were Cutlii. And if you have the "original build sheet", a photo of that in the ad would be smart if you're asking $100K. So would a photo of the Y74 on the cowl tag. Just sayin'.

 

$100K, five photos & it's posted on CL. The "Power Top" is a nice touch - WTH. Odometer of 999 - huh? Poor documentation of this car on CL, IMO.
The vehicle is being offered by an automotive body shop. They most likely perform good work - but something sounds dubious.

Yeah, they don't know Oldsmobile

That was a link to a Craigslist ad from four years ago. The OP was not the seller.

 

Thanks Joe you are correct.

Is the phone number of the original seller. Not sure if they still own it or not. I am pretty sure they owned two of them and some other collectible cars
