| 122. "I am very happy to announce that I just bought one!!! It is a '77 all stock, in white with a blue interior. The guy I bought it from totally restored it. "I first saw it around town (Cranbrook, BC), and I couldn't belive how mint it was, and one day I saw it parked in front of a house so I asked my girlfriend who was with me at the time to put a note on pacer to see if he would sell it. (I asked her to place the note from fear that some one would think I was trying to steal it, it's less intimidating that way). Anyhow, he called and said he would sell it, I went and had a look at it and it was amazing, the owner was an older man in his late 70's and he had done everything on it, plus he had a parts car. At the time we were driving around in a beater - 82 'VW Scirocco', which was driving us broke, every week it was something new that would break down on it, it even broke down on the highway on Christmas Eve. I put out an ad for it, the ad came out on Monday, I sold it on friday and bought the Pacer Saturday. "We took it for a long drive and we love it. I am making a new dash console to fit my CD player. I am halfway done already." -Mauri |
| 123. These are two pictures submitted by Kevin Murphy. |
| 124. This is "a black-and-white photo of a shiny black AMC Pacer, although it's *sigh* not my own. I fell in love with the Pacer when I was visiting Florida as a five year old. Years later I saw a Pacer in my home town, Hamburg. I did not waste a minute, took a picture and never had to make awful drawings again when asked what my favourite car was. Now I'll refer people to the Pacer page... "BTW: I never watched Wayne's World (shame on me), but that's because nobody told me it features a Pacer! ;)" -Alexander Svensson |
| 125. "Just wanted to share the good news with someone!!! I got myself a '77 Pacer wagon! Yeahhhhhh..." -Mudd |
| 126. GK55 was kind enough to provide this image of the adorable "Love Pacer" button from the 70s. |
| 127. This picture comes from Hilmar Karlsson in Iceland. A friend of his bought the car a few years ago for the sole purpose of travelling across the country for a party. Unfortunately, he sold it in the spring of 1999... but notice the way-cool Wayne's World paint job! |
| 128. "I stopped and chatted with Brandon back in February, and took some pictures. This is the rarely-seen 'bad' side of his Pacer. Notice the van in the background. That is Nationwide Clyde, my van. Also note the vacuum." -Tim Hansen |
| 129. "The Pacer Page Pacer somewhere in Kentucky. Taken during my 1997 trip to Oregon." -Glen Hoag |
| 130. "Here's [my pacer], but it's a little different. It has a 360 cubic inch Chrysler engine in it and is a race car now, ha ha. It's called the PACEMAKER." -Rob L. |
| 131. "Things are kind of strange right now- my Pacer 'Emily' hasn't been driven since last October [1998]; it sits under a tarp in my backyard. But, this summer, a custom project is going to completely change it. I *was* going to restore, but the rust got sooo bad, it's either spend a fortune on a rebody or cut out all the bad metal and replace it. If we go stock, well, we don't have the skills to go stock. But, we can craft some wild fender flares. I have a buddy who wants to sheetmetal over the rear side windows (mine's a Wagon) and build a mini-panel-van out of it, and then build one of those car-stereo showcases in it. I said, OK, but only if we balance it to my tastes. (I'm not much for that ridiculous heavy bass sound. I'm one of a small but fervent group of midrange/treble fans...think early Talking Heads...hey, I drive....well....OWN a Pacer. You expect normalcy?) The first objective is to have it running. I hope to drive it to the NAMDRA meet in August down in Cordova, IL. "Eventually, I want to find a nice '77 X coupe. "Anyhow, I was digging through my photos, and found this one taken with Glen Hoag when he was out to get the stuff from my parts Pacers. This photo has four Pacers on my property at one time. The PX3 (P.acer P.age P.acer), my Emily, and the two parts cars, representing the whole range of Pacer development- '75-'79 (although the distinctive '79 hood had already been removed and packaged for shipping!)." -Tim Hansen |
