The Nash marks our seventh ride we’re giving away since the Sick-themed (and wrapped) Chevrolet Tahoe kick started our giveaway spree in early 2023.
The Edelbrock-supercharged Tahoe debuted at Sick Week Presented by Gear Vendors Overdrive, and Tom Bailey continued finding cool and unique vehicles to give away to our loyal Sick the Magazine subscribers, as well as supporters of our events and merchandise.
They included a pair of drag-and-drive proven rides, the ’57 Chevy wagon Gasser and the ’62 Chevy II Gasser, a right-hand-drive Ute, a cool patina’d Chevy dually truck, and one of the cleanest Pontiac Fiero models we’ve seen in years.
With the ’52 Nash nearing the end of its giveaway period, Tom bucked tradition and decided to debut our next giveaway car a little early. Without further delay, we present Sick the Mag giveaway number 8: a rare ‘69 Chevy Camaro Indy Pace Car replica. You could win it, plus $5,000 in cash!!
Similar to other Pace Cars, the car manufacturer builds 2-3 vehicles for use during the Indianapolis 500 race, traditionally held over Memorial Day weekend, usually the last weekend of May. Typically, the manufacturer also builds a number of replica Pace Cars that match the actual Pace Cars used during the race, but normally don’t see official pace duties.
1969 marked the second year of the Camaro being selected for Pace Car duties, and Chevrolet pulled out the stops to give it great visual appeal, as well as some great options.
This Camaro is 1 of the 3,675 Camaro convertible models originally built with the Z11 code "Indy Sport Convertible" designation. The Pace Car models included:
- Rally Sport / Super Sport option packages.
- ‘Air Induction’ (or commonly known as ‘Cowl Induction’) steel hood.
- Front and rear spoilers.
- 'Rally' steel wheels.
- Posi-traction rear end.
- Exterior finished in Dover White with Hugger Orange stripes on the hood and trunk lid areas
- ‘Chevrolet Camaro - Official Pace Car – 53rd ANNUAL INDIANAPOLIS 500 MILE RACE – MAY 30, 1969’ door decals.
- Deluxe Orange Houndstooth interior with center console and floor shifter.
Pace cars could come with several engines, and this one sports the base 350 cubic inch small block engine, rated at 300 horsepower, and coupled to a 3-speed automatic transmission. This example also features: Power Steering, Power Brakes, Tilt Steering Column, as well as Heat and Defrost.
