Why This Car Is Special

We have a first-generation 1969 Chevrolet Camaro Pace Car Replica Convertible here at Skyway Classics that has had a complete and thorough restoration and looks as it did when it was new in 1969 and has only 80k miles on it.

In 1969, the Chevrolet Camaro was chosen as the Official Pace Car for the 1969 running of the Indianapolis 500 and as the Official Car of the '500' Festival. This was a repeat performance for Camaro since it had also been chosen as the 1967 Pace Car.

The 1969 Pace Car Replicas were designed to be visible and they were being Dover White RS/SS convertibles with Hugger Orange Z28 style stripes and orange houndstooth seats.

All were equipped with the recently released fresh air cowl hood and were RS/SS convertibles with white tops ordered under RPO Z11.

Ours has the 350-cubic-inch Turbo-Fire V-8 engine with 300 horsepower, air conditioning, a 4-speed manual transmission, power steering and power disc brakes.

Mechanical

Our 1969 has what we believe to be the original correct factory engine, a 1969 350 cubic inch small block Chevrolet engine looking great and sitting in the clean and detailed engine compartment.

The engine block, intake manifold, and heads are painted in the correct Chevrolet factory orange paint with a four-barrel carb, Air Conditioning, factory cast iron exhaust headers, power steering and brakes, and is backed by a manual 4-speed transmission.

It rolls on Goodyear Polyglas Reproduction Tires and Rallye wheels with chrome trim rings and caps.

Interior

Our Indy Camaro has the only interior color the Pace Car Camaros had, the bright orange houndstooth cloth and vinyl front bucket seats and the matching rear seat and door panels, wood steering wheel, great factory dash with all the correct gauges including the factory 120 mph speedometer, Center Console with the 4-speed shifter and Tic-Toc gauge cluster, wood grain trim, radio with speakers, and all of it looks as new.

Exterior

The paint and decals on our 69 is the correct Dover White paint on the exterior like it came with from the factory as a Indy 500 Pace Car Replica as well as the orange Z28 hood and deck lid stripes, orange D96 fender striping, and white rocker panels.

The required options with the Z11 package included the white convertible top, D80 spoilers, YA1 deluxe seatbelts, ZJ7 rally wheels, ZL2 special ducted hood, Z22 Rally Sport front end, Z27 Super Sport, and Z87 custom interior (orange houndstooth, code 720.)
