In fact there is so much that it takes two large file boxes!! This car has had a lifetime of diligent care and discerning use and maintenance to be as nice and original as it is. Production date of May 9th, 1972 and delivered new by Hawkeye Motor Company in Burlington, IA (dealer code 279 in zone 47) per the official NCRS/GM Shipping Data Records (SDR). Looks, runs, and drives excellent and is a treasure to see and drive like it is 1972 all over again.

1017T.. 1978 Corvette Limited Edition Indy Pace Car, L-82, 4 speed, numbers matching original motor, transmission and rear end, also has factory original body/trim tag, 5,429 actual miles. Special Black/Silver Pace Car paint with Special Pace Car Silver interior, tops, wheels and graphics. New condition with the exception of minor aging that one would expect on a 46-year old low-mile car. Original, unrestored and excellent. These original unmolested cars are among the rarest of rare and are rising to the top of the Corvette food chain as unrestored cars are used as guideposts for restorers, shining a light on the way vehicles were originally built and represent the standards which historians, judges, and future restorers can use to determine factory authenticity. The solid feel of an excellent unrestored car cannot be overstated!… This is a great car for a purist connoisseur. One of 202 optioned with the L82 4-speed combination. Original door decals still in original box. Optioned with close-ratio 4-speed transmission, factory air, power steering, power brakes, power windows, power antenna, power door locks, cruise control, leather, tilt-n-telescopic, SS brakes, A.I.R., AM/FM stereo radio with cassette, comfort/convenience group, rear window defog, FE7 Gymkhana suspension, audio alarm, glass tops, sport mirrors, tinted glass, alloys and raised white lettered radials. Most all factory correct type components. Documented with the window sticker, copy of manufacturer's statement of origin (MSO), owners manual, sales brochure, copies of previous titles back to 1978, maintenance receipts, 62nd Indy 500-Mile Race program, Indy Speedway photos, GM ads and articles and multiple 3-ring binders. Editorialized in Corvette News, Corvette Fever, Corvette World, and Super Chevy Magazine. In 1978, Al Unser wins Indy 500 for third time! This car has had a lifetime of diligent care and discerning use and maintenance to be as nice and original as it is. Looks, runs, and drives excellent and is incredibly civilized! CC:1 SOLD
