Pacer Stories

The AMC Pacer is an interesting car, and along with it have come many interesting stories. I have shared mine, and I have invited Pacer Page visitors to share theirs as well. Among the hundreds who have written, many very unique tales have surfaced. I have captured some of these below. Enjoy, and if you have a story to share as well, please contact me!
