    FS: Corsa Touring with Classic Tips

    These were sold to me by mistake, they were supposed to be the Pace Car system. I was told they have approx 6000 miles on them. Tips are in very good condition, pipes look unused, and there is a small amount of black overspray on the mufflers that can't be seen once installed. Missing the two...

    Pics of my "new" 78 Pace Car

    Mine is number 974, L-82 auto, and it has the somewhat rare cloth inserts on the seats and door panels, and the CB radio.

    Pics of my "new" 78 Pace Car

    The Dunlops are actually pretty good tires so far, nice ride and handling. The previous owner put them on right before I bought it, but I think I'll stick with them. Regarding the decals, I also have the door decals in a box. I just prefer the look of the car without them. But either way, the...

    Pics of my "new" 78 Pace Car

    Thanks guys. BTW, got my wheels back and they look brand new! One even had a little curb rash and they were even able to buff that out. Cost was $125/wheel, way less than buying repro's! If anybody wants the info on the place that did them, send me a PM.

    Getting the shine back on factory alloy wheels

    I guess I took the lazy way and had mine done professionally. Mine were very oxidized and the red pin stripe was almost worn away. For $125 per wheel, they stripped them, sanded them, hand polished them, repainted all the pin stripes, repainted the black on the inside of the slots, mounted and...

    I having the wheels done right now. A place in Kansas City is restoring them, repainting the black in the back of the slots, and repainting the pin stripes, for $120 per wheel. I'll let you know how they turn out, they are supposed to be done this week.

    Needed: Gear indicator thingy

    Thanks for the offer Steve, but I already ordered it. Yeah, pulling the console out, that's how I broke the darn thing! That little cotter pin that holds the shift stick to the transmission link slipped off, that's why I had to take the console apart. If I break this one putting it back in...

    Needed: Gear indicator thingy

    I need the white plastic part that indicates what gear the car is in (automatic). It's for a 78 if that matters. Thanks.

    Pics of my "new" 78 Pace Car

    Picked it up a couple weeks ago, and today was a nice day so I took a few pics. 37000 miles, body in great shape. Gonna work on the interior this winter, and start detailing the engine. Rims need to be restored and pinstriped as well. But I LOVE it! Always wanted a PC, it was actually the...
