Default 78 Pace

Where can I find history on a Pace?
I have the VIN number but due to age car fax won't do it.
The previous owner died so that elimnates him.
I of course wonder if milage has turned over and options the car was purchased with.
It is a pace and an L82 model due to the vin # but i want more information.
Any ideas

You can try to get in touch with the earlier owners if possible, starting with the previous owners spouse, etc. Otherwise, it's a pretty tough ticket to get any info. That is why buyers are willing to spend more for a car, especially a collector car, that comes with its history. Good luck.
