Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE MicrosoftInternetExplorer4 Almost perfect (Original!) condition 1980 Indianapolis 500 Pontiac Trans AM Pace Car! This is one of the cars with the infrequent VIN with the "X". Indicating it is an Official Indy Pace Car. This is a sweet 1980 Trans Am Indy Pace Car! This car is so nice that it could be in a museum (was bought from one!). It's really an amazing car. For example: when you open the truck you get a "new car" smell that's possible because of the climate controlled environment this car has been kept. We have taken very good care of this car and it's almost 100% original. Currently, the car is held in a CarCoon car protection system. This protects the car from particle contamination, water contamination, and other air pollutants. We also have kept the humidity low in the car by using pellets that absorb moisture in the air. We drive it occasionally to car shows to maintain mechanical operation of the car but really don’t drive it that much. This is a true collector’s car and very popular and noticeable! When people see this car they turn their heads! Kids say wow and teens just stare in amazement. Inside the car we have it protected with plastic on the seats and carpet. The carpet is original but looks like it has never been used! This car is not for the average person. This is a flash of the past and can be driven daily or keep it as nice as we have. If I had not wanted to keep this car as a collector’s piece I would have driven it daily. It’s just so nice that I just don’t have the heart to make it a daily driver. I have the original documents and window decals. We have the original booklets. I have the history of the car from the original owner to us. We have a nice show sign to explain the car to others. This car is a museum on wheels! Take a look at the photos. Ask for more if you are a serious buyer. Note the dealer plastic on the floor of the car and the "perfection" of the panel and radio. It’s an amazing car to sit in and ever more to drive. Watch the 4.9L Turbo kick in with lights on the hood!
