    Default Vince's (SVT3434) '79 Pace Car

    Ok, as most of you know, my buddy (and member here - SVT3434) lost the fight with stage 4 brain cancer that spread through his body. Although I am not the owner, his widow has tasked me with selling the Pace Car. Vince had taken delivery approximately 3 months before passing away. The linl below has some pics of it, thanx to Brock. All of my pics were through Photobucket and have not sourced another means of posting more pics. Newer interior, Recaros reupholstered in non pace car material (pictured), 5.0L W/ SROD, serpentine belt, Edelbrock intake and carb, some interior items need repaired/replaced, probably original paint.... A definite project but a good starting point. In the thread (link below), there was input of estimated value ranging from around $3k on up. Trying to help Michelle and her 3 kids, I am listing this at $4500. Vince was an extremely hard working individual but, unfortunately, was uninsured in case of death. NO LIFE insurance. Semi firm on price and any shipping is solely on the buyer. Payment options will be listed after I find out Michelle's preference. More pics available by contacting me by pm or text (initial contact via pm and I will give number). Located in San Diego, Ca.

    Based on the one that just sold for $6,500 a month ago, I think that is right on the money. Another $2,000 in that and it would be comparable to that one. GLWS

    Thanx guys. The family is already packing to move. The pace car funds will be survival money for them. Need to sell. Any shipping is on the buyer. POSSIBLE delivery in SoCal area........

    Giving this thread a bump for you.

    When I see an almost 40 year old car sitting in a parking lot rather than a scrap heap, it's a reminder to focus on the positive aspects of what's there. It comes from a much simpler and slower paced time.

    Is there anything the FEP community can do to help this chapter of the story proceed with a more positive than expected twist?

    Thank you Marshall and to Michelle. I have big plans for the car, but it will have to wait until my SVO is done.
