Theres one in Eastern Canada. Looks like it's in Excellent shape. It's about 6 hrs away from me. Google maps says it's 2237 kms or 22hrs away from Fort Wayne IN. It's located in Windsor Nova Scotia.

Re: [IN] 82 Pace Car Wanted

I've been watching this one & is close enough to go look at. It is pretty rare 4spd manual car with carberator rather than CFI.
Here is the link.

Thanks for the link. I emailed him for more info, that's kinda what I'm looking for. Would be nice to have a pair of eyes on it before I drove 6 hours.
I see youre in Imperial? Seen some restoration work done by John's body shop on Outer Rd... nice stuff.
Funny, I've been searching Craigslist in that area and nothing came up with '82 Camaro", but did with pace camaro... strange.

John's Autobody dies some amazing high end cars but also insurance work.
I've kicked around going to look at this car but like my convertibles more.
a 4spd non crossfire is a pretty rare car & if it were a hardtop version I would just go buy it.
I like the pace cars but not in love with them.
I could possibly make time next weekend.

Cool. I'll talk to the guy and try to get some answers beforehand. If it sounds good and you can get up there, I'll pay you for your time and expense. Thanks!

I emailed him, he said there's some rust in the floors. That doesn't bother me as long as I wouldn't have to replace the whole floor...:O
I told him I had a friend out his way that might be able to come and inspect it this coming weekend, if you're both available that would be great. I'll let you know what he says. Are you able to get up there any time?? Thanks!

Cool. Once he gets back to me and he's available, maybe it might be simpler if you call him and set up something. I appreciate any help!

Rare, thanks for your offer to check it out, but I'm going to pass. I found one in better shape I'm going to look at. Thanks again!
