1997 Camaro 30th Anniversary debuted at the August 3, 1996 Brickyard 400 as a Parade / Festival Camaro. This was the 5th time a Chevrolet Camaro had served as the pace car for a race at the famous Brickyard, although up to this point, the racing cars had been open-wheel types. Camaro's had been used to pace the traditional Indy 500 race in 1967, 1969, 1982 and 1993. Only 50 of these Camaro's were made for the race at Indy. This is car 35. See Vin plate photo. These cars were not made for sale to the general public. Available for 1997 were two special trims to celebrate the Camaro's 30th birthday: a 30th Anniversary package for the Z28 and an SS Z28. The 30th Anniversary package is easily detectable by the Arctic White paint accented with Hugger Orange stripes, a combination intended to pay homage to the 1969 Camaro Indy Pace Car. The seats were similarly trimmed in Arctic White, again paying tribute to the classic car. I was the GM Platform Manager of F car and while at the race personally rode in the back for the parade lap in this car with John Middlebrook. After the race the car was shipped to my house where it has been stored inside, on a hoist ever since. This is not a Pace car, but a Parade / Festival car. Actual Pace Cars were not Convertibles. They were hardtop to support the light bar. There were also replicas made for sale in dealerships, but were not track cars. Original documents included are, window sticker showing pass to the staging lot, the build sheet, event tag registration #35, original pilot car papers, dealer invoice. This car has every option offered, and only 5900 miles. This is an extremely rare car and very collectible classic. In addition, there are numerous special collectibles – hats, shirts, coffee cups, license plates, tickets to the race, and one off leather jackets.
