Hello from NC
Hello. I just purchased a 1978 Pace Car edition #5362. It's an L48 4-speed and appears to be in great condition. I grew up in Indianapolis and have liked this model since they paced the race. I look forward to reading through the technical section to get info on why the speedometer varies from 20-30 mph off (at least I can drive by the tach) and fixing the power antenna (the 8-track works so I am not completely without music).
