Default 1978 Indy pace car, L-82, $15,000

I am selling a one owner pace car for the estate of the original owner. Sadly except for the title, original sales receipt and misc. warranty booklets and service papers there is no documentation for the car. The owner told his daughter two years ago that the car had only 1700 miles, but i am not able to substantiate this. So assume it is a 101,700 mile car and maybe the next owner will luck out into finding proof it is low mileage. The tires and brake pads look low mileage but no one would want to hang their hat on that. I am only curious because it drives like a 1700 mile car, solid, no rattles, smooth and tight. Only a little extra exhaust noise, and slight choke issues.
The owner modified some engine trim, see photo. Car has nice patina, some spidering and crazing of the paint in the usual places, but shiny and very nice paint. Interior including carpets are excellent.
CB, L-82, matching numbers, 1902 build. A/C does not blow cold, but may only be charge issue. I hope purchaser can come see it in person, i think the price is very fair for a driver and a steal if the lower mileage can be documented. This car will be sold this summer and for now i am only offering it in this forum as i am a faithful 67 BB rdstr owner who has been the recipient of friendly advice here for years. The car is located in Phila pa.
