Yes, 1989 was the 73rd running of the Indianapolis 500. There were a little more than 1500 pace car editions sent out to the streets of America, most of which are known to survive still.

They do draw strong prices, 8k is not a crazy starting point to sell one as clean as that appears in the pictures.

Tim, I know a ton about the TTA's...his ad confused the hell out of me...it's horribly worded lol.

He made it sound like the car was the 73rd edition and he was asking $43K for it lol

On Oct-18-08 at 10:34:12 PDT, seller added the following information: Correction: only 1500 of these cars produced ever. Own a piece of race history at a great price.Collector cars are great, but what about a great collector car that has great performance and is affordable. This car commemorated the 20th Anniversary of the Trans Am and also served as the Official Pace Car of the 73rd Indianapolis 500.
I love the uneducated posts on there, but at least this cat updated it with good info.

It articulates, way better than the later style that the 4th gen got. The whole seat in the 4th gen is the same as the 3rd gen. I dont know why they changed it

They did. One, possibly two cars.

The rest were pace car replicas. So if you want to be a ball buster you can say that this ad is inaccurate if this car wasn't the one actually pacing the race.

imagine if it was. imagine if it ran the race, then was put away in climate controlled storage, but being run regularly to keep oil on all of the seals... so it only had a total of like, 12 miles.

now, THAT would be worth 40k.
