i have just (in a barn)found a L79 pace car- could anyone tell me how many were made-i am guessing very few- would like to know to judge price- looks like 38000 miles with paper work and needs restored  thanks

Maybe a half dozen or so L89 pacecars are known including the 2 "real" pacecars.  An L89 with 38K miles, original drivetrain and paperwork is certainly going to be in the 100K+ range.  The better the body condition the more it worth, conversely if its a rust bucket it will be worth less but 100K is a good mid point price.

You're asking for the moon. :)
There are a few (at least 20-40) L78 pacers out there, and several still with orig drivetrain. Many more than that were made, but not all survive.

Thanks for the reply.I thought there was a pace car registry keeping track of these things.I did not realize there were 20-40 documented 69  L78 convertibles known to exist let alone pace cars.
