The Photo and Image Archives

104. "Here is a picture of one of my pacers. It is a 1975 Pacer X and was the first Pacer in Holland, Europe. It was flown in by plane to be on a car expo. It was equipped as a rescue car. I will send you [another] photo if I can find it At that expo I saw the pacer for the first time and, as a lover of rare cars, I liked it. At that expo, 25 Pacers were sold. The years after only a few more followed. Surprise, surprise... I found that same car of the expo and bought it in 1978. A year later, on a boring Saturday, we put a saw in it and gave it a paint job. In the picture you can see the result. It ever reach 'drivers rides' in the magazine TRUCKING in a 1980 issue. I still own the car and am planning to restore it." -Michiel Vanderpuijl
