2004 Corvette Pace Car with 12,000 original miles. In 2004, The Chevrolet Corvette was chosen as the Pace Car for the 88th running of the Indianapolis 500 Race. Two Corvettes were built for the Pace Cars. Another 22 White Corvette Convertibles were built and came equipped with red interiors and white tops and were used as Indy 500 “Festival” or “Track” Cars. Mechanically, the festival cars and pace car replicas are often identical, with the only difference being the fact that festival cars were actually used at or near the Indy 500 for official use by the track, television studios, local dignitaries, and Indy Speedway staff. The Corvettes had just a few modifications with a less restrictive exhaust system, H.D. transmission and power steering coolers, as well as Red-White-Blue Flag striping and Indy 500 Decals. A few of these 2004 Festival Corvettes were also used for The NASCAR Brickyard 400.
It is powered by an all-aluminum 350 LS1 350 Horse Small Block Chevy V8 engine backed by a 700R4 automatic transmission and it rides on a set of Goodyear Eagle F1 tires on special polished aluminum five spoke Chevrolet wheels.
The extensive list of standard equipment include power rack-and-pinion steering, power 4-whell disc brakes with ABS, dual zone air conditioning, six-way power operated red leather driver and passenger Sport Seats, active handling and traction control, cruise control, electronically controlled dual outside mirrors, fog lamps, power/tilt/telescopic steering column, heads-up display, auto-dimming mirrors, memory package, twilight sentinel, and a white convertible top. This beautiful example is documented in the pace car registry and ready for a new home.
