Intrigued Posted October 22, 2013 Report Posted October 22, 2013 Very cool build! I'm looking forward to watching this one Quote
1988PhantomFE3 Posted November 22, 2013 Author Report Posted November 22, 2013 WOW Jay, how old is that pic? Is that a car lot? She's Pretty Nice! Quote
ManicMechanic Posted November 22, 2013 Report Posted November 22, 2013 The guy that took it uploaded it just a few months ago. He never answered me about it though, it was uploaded to Flickr. Quote
1988PhantomFE3 Posted November 30, 2013 Author Report Posted November 30, 2013 When LUKE takes PICS off an OLD OLD post, can they still be accessed by him somewhere? Quote
mfewtrail Posted November 30, 2013 Report Posted November 30, 2013 When LUKE takes PICS off an OLD OLD post, can they still be accessed by him somewhere? Probably not. He's not going through removing them one-by-one or anything. He's just using some tool on the forum to delete them from a certain date or prior to free up space most likely. Quote

1988PhantomFE3 Posted January 28, 2014 Author Report Posted January 28, 2014 (edited) Jay, have you ever heard of the Challenger Wrecker MFG,, OFFICIAL Recovery VEHICLE ? I never bid on the Jacket you got, but I have one from the 1988 INDY 500 that has the above info embroidered on it. Just wondering if you got an info? I'll get a new Camera and post a PIC if you never seen it before, you probably have... Edited January 28, 2014 by 1988PhantomFE3 Quote
1988PhantomFE3 Posted February 1, 2014 Author Report Posted February 1, 2014 I need everyones help here please... If you look at the hood in this PIC, there are a set of center scoops I have never noticed until now. Big Question, "What are they and where did they come from?" This is a photo from C&C who built the Pace Cars for GM in 1988. The cars donated to C&C were some of the very first prototypes, well before the Model Change went into Full Production. Even if you do not know exactly what they are, or where they came from, I am still hoping for everyone's best guess! Quote
94 olds vert Posted February 1, 2014 Report Posted February 1, 2014 My first guess would late 80s Pontiac Trans am or Firebird hood vents. I know those sit flush... They seem to fit the bill, but not quite. Quote

ManicMechanic Posted February 6, 2014 Report Posted February 6, 2014 A bit different than a GTA. Quote
1988PhantomFE3 Posted February 22, 2014 Author Report Posted February 22, 2014 Thank YOU for sending me the PIC Jay:thumbsup: Most of the 1988 Pace Car Replica PICS are here at the W-Body Site... Quote
ManicMechanic Posted February 23, 2014 Report Posted February 23, 2014 They also made LeSabre T-Type limos like that. I kinda like them BECAUSE they're so goofy looking. Quote
1988PhantomFE3 Posted February 25, 2014 Author Report Posted February 25, 2014 Jay, I got these center louvers coming from the other side of the state. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction, I like this set up fpr the hood, better than the Datona Turbo Vent...for now....lol Quote
