Pacer For Sale - Mine

It has been decided that my third garage is needed for other project's and
therefore I need to sell my second 1976 Pacer coupe. This is a white 76 D/L
with the vinyl top option. Air Conditioning, power brakes, power steering,
258, IV and automatic on the floor. Lighted vanity mirror. Remote controlled
driver's side mirror and non remote passenger mirror. There is no radio or
clock, but does have an antenna. This car has brand new rack and pinion,
brand new paint job, brand new cat converter, new white side wall tires
(3K). new door hinges, new door controls (at $73 each !!!) bumper absorbers,
new center pieces for the "high style" wheels, new vinyl top material,
manifold has been planed (shaved) and new exhaust pipe, new master cylinder
and wheel cylinders, new exhaust doughnut.
Understand that "brand new" means before it was stored in 2000.
The car is on a California Non-Op permit and has been parked since 2000. It
has, since I acquired it, been started once a week and driven a couple of
blocks to keep seals and bands operative. Over $3,100 has been spent on the
car. All receipts are available as is the Car Build Order
It passed California Emissions Testing (smog) before being stored.
This is a project car. The previous owner completed all of the above and
decided to replace the vinyl top and to change the red interior to white.
Thus, he removed the vinyl top, removing all of the chrome strips on the top
of the car and tops of doors and windows. Next he removed all of the
interior door and side panels in order to paint them white to match the new
exterior color, white (same as the original color). The door panels (no
cracks) were blue (?) and then painted white and the paint is chipped off in
many places. The rest of the red interior is in the car ready to be either
painted or reinstalled. The dash face and pad were removed and I assume he
was going to paint it but needs to be permanently re-installed. (It is
temporarily installed at the moment. The roll of new maroon vinyl is inside
the car as are all the chrome pieces. The headliner is in place temporary,
evidently he was going to paint it also.
The are a number of extra interior pieces to include black door panels with
the ribbed top (no cracks) and the recessed areas in the lower front corner
for pockets or speaker grills. There are black dash inserts (light switch,
radio/clock) and some other black interior pieces.
I have found one rust hole just above the license plate. The split back
bench seat needs repaired on the drivers side. Carpet is worn but useable.
The previous owner was obviously trying hard to restore this car but a
financial problem caused him to lose the car to storage bills and I acquired
it from the storage company. Pictures are available, just ask. I'm asking
$1,600. This car is actually in better shape, both mechanically and body
wise, than my red 76 but I have a sentimental attachment to my first Pacer.
You smog it and it will have to be trailered or registered in order to move
it or get a temporary permit to drive it home.
