From Erik Verbeek's Pacer so-called tribute
3. A photo borrowed from Erik Verbeek's now-defunct page. He drives a Suzuki motorcycle and pokes fun at Pacers with this picture. (Editor's note: IMO, he only wishes he could get his hands on something as slick as a Pacer! :) ) The (unmodified) photo is from the original 1975 sales brochure.

Editor's Note: Several more pictures of this car appear later in the archives!

Blue Pacer
9. As of 29 May 1997, this Pacer was for sale (see Highway One Classifieds), though it's likely found a new owner by now. (Photo harvesting credit: Tim Hansen.)
White Pacer
10. This Pacer belongs to Debbie Koos, a member of the Alamo AMC club. Check out the miniature Pacers on the roof! (Photo harvesting credit: Tim Hansen.)

Some additional notes from Alfred Koos:

  • "The car is listed in our club roster under 'Debbie Koos' (my sister), but the car actually belongs to Jeanne Koos (my mother). Members of my family were AMC employees going back to the Nash days. Our family had two Pacer company lease cars in the '70s, and they were always my mom's favorite. Twenty years later, she spotted this Pacer for sale in the local San Antonio paper and bought it!
  • "It's a '77 D/L with blue 'basket weave' interior. It had 70,000 original miles when she bought it in '95.
  • "The photo you have was from the 1995 'Torrado Mopar Show' in San Antonio--it was the first show we entered the car in, and on that occasion the Pacer took a first place for 'Best AMC', beating out a row of Javelins and AMXs! The little Pacers on the roof are my two vintage 'Tonka' Pacers, one yellow and one purple.
  • "The Pacer is part of a stable of Koos family cars. I have a '64 Rambler Classic, '72 Ambassador, and '85 Eagle. My older sister, Debbie, has a '70 Javelin, and her fiance races a '68 Javelin. My little sister has a '79 Spirit. My Grandpa has a '75 Pacer D/L with only 30,000 miles!"

18. The Pacer's Hollywood cousin! All three of the cars in the pictures to the left were used in the movie Wayne's World and its sequel. Note the flames on the convertible, and the lack of flames on the other coupe -- the latter was used for interior shots during filming. (Photo harvesting credit: Tim Hansen -- all three pictures came from John Rosa's Car Stars of Film and Television.)

Editor's note: As I'm writing this entry, on the evening of 19 June 1997, I just returned from a drive in my car (not the Pacer -- that would have been too scary), where I heard "Bohemian Rhapsody" on Cleveland's WNCX 98.5 FM.

CGE Pacer
25. A black-and-white newspaper scan taken from a mid-70's article on "the Pacer CGE, a 401-powered Pacer with blanked out rear windows, spoilers, air dam, wheel moldings, etc. done by Randall out in Mesa, AZ." -Jerry Casper (Photo harvesting: Tim Hansen)

Additional information from Eddie Stakes: "Randall AMC of Mesa Arizona, famous for the Randall Gremlins, also did a few Pacers; they would yank out the 304/904 combo and drop in a highly modified 401/4spd, along with the custom flair job."
