82 pace car resto

I recently bought an 82 pace car that is pretty trashed and i would like to know of any good places where i can can buy parts for it. I mostly need the decal kit and misc outside parts the interior is in good shape but the car sat under a tree for a while plus its a repaint so all the original decals are gone i would be happy with repro stuff cause it will fit my budget better.
Also any pics of the 82 pace car that yall can find would help me out alot especially the back cause this car doesnt have a rear GFX and i need to know if it is supposed to
thanks
Speedy

The decal kit is available now, I'll check for the supplier as I don't recall off hand. I have a number of pix on the 82 Pacer I can email you although some guys here have mint cars, mine is original but not as mint. I'm also curious about interior peices for myself. My car is complete but always room for improvement. Post some pix if you get a chance.

Try Phoenix Graphix for the decals. They reproduce the decals that most places sell, and they're GM licensed. In other words you'd have to look long and hard to find any difference between their decals and the oem. Plus their prices are usually cheaper.

www.phoenixgraphix.com

A couple of the aftermarket suppliers started listing Pace Car parts in their catalogs. So order as many catalogs as you can.

Classic Industries
Next Gen / Year One
The Paddock

Another tip, don't pay money for a catalog. Go to their website, if they don't offer a free catalog, call and order a part you need and request they send you a catalog. As long as they know you're going to order something they wont charge you $5 for shiny pictures of parts.

Dad still has the 87 Iroc. I'm not sure what he's doing with it now. He hasn't actively tried to sell it lately.
