Looking to match the '05 Indy pace car stripes...

Hi All:

I fell in love years ago and am just now making the "dream" a reality.
I have an '05 Slingshot Y. on its way from CA to RI.

I have days to... Clean out the garage... Again.

OK, to the point. I'd like to find out more info on the silver, red, black decale "stripes" used on the '05 Indy Pace SSR. If anyone knows what shop did up the 25 to 50 trucks... I'd like to get in touch.

Thanks in advance...
Any info would help.

TWoz aka Tom in RI

You might check Paceguy's threads as he seems most knowledgeable on Pace's and also CQQL_SSR had a thread on the possibility of converting his into one of the pace vehicles. You could check those out and you may find some info.

A COMPANY DID ALL THE PACE CARS AND TRUCKS FOR GM. BUT THEY WILL ONLY SELL THE DECAL SETS TO A VEHICLE THAT HAS THE CORRECT VIN# THAT WAY NO ONE CAN CLAME ITS A REAL PACE TRUCK. SAME PLACE I GOT ALL MY DECALS FOR MY INDY PACE CAR.

I thought that was a secret?
You need proof of ownership to get the decals.

I wonder if all dealers hold to that policy. If a dealer had the correct serial number for one of the parade trucks, I wonder if he could slip a set through the system.

Seems like Final Production badges have slipped through even though a serial number and proof of damage is supposedly required to get one of those.
