Hi Everyone

Something about myself.....
I live in Newbury Ohio. Been here for most of my life (69 years old)
I own fourteen cars, all Ford, Lincoln, Mercury.
Four of them are Mustangs.
1971 Mustang Convertible. 1978 Mustang King Cobra. 1995 Mustang GT Convertible. And my latest accusation, a 1994 Mustang Indy Pace Car.

I wanted an Indy Pace car and searched for it for about nine years.
Actually found this one on a used car lot.
Car is 100% original, well almost anyway. The battery had been replaced when I got it, I took off (or replaced) the wiper blades and all four tires.

Something about the car....
Vin Number is 1FALP45D6RF161657 Assembled at the Dearborn Assembly Plant on April 13, 1994 and is Number 936. Had just over 18000 miles when I got it just a few months ago, but now reads (aprox) 23000 miles.

Oh....... for what its worth, it already got its first "Speeding" ticket

Thanks, Jim O'Reilly "Jims Pace Car"

Welcome!

That sounds like a great find.

You should have told the officer you can't get a speeding ticket because the pace car is the one that sets the speed limit for everbody else. ;)

Thanks both of you (that is Superg also)

Yes I agree, it was a "Great Find". As you know these cars are numbered, so I KNOW it the same car that I had looked at maybe two or two and a half years ago. The owner was asking almost twice what I paid for it, and he wouldn't budge. I'm more then happy with the car, AND THE PRICE.

Superg.....
I already sent in a waiver thing (along with the money)
The cop cut me ALOT OF SLACK. Said it was because of the F.O.B. card I had.
No argument from me.....
He actually gave me a ticket for no seat belt.

Not to brag, ah what the hell, BRAG ! ! !
He stoped me because I was going 93 MPH in a 55 MPH, weaving, changing lanes without a signal, no front license plate, and no seatbelts.

As you can see, the ticket I got is quite fine with me !

Thanks again, Jims Pace Car
