[svtrichie]

What wheels are going to be on the car? The two pics are different.

[phatkat]

[BurnTire]

High roller union guy gets 1 out 50 produced.

[Jacostang]

Well, sold the 92 Police Car, and I think thats it right now but budget is right tight for sure and the wheels in the larger picture is what it comes with..

[05mustangman]

[Rev'n Kevin]

Soooooo Coooool Dave, so I guess we will be following you on the next road trip, lol

[JoshuaEIB]

cogratz! I ordered my '11 on april 14th and picked it up on may 18th... maybe you will get it sooner ;)

[Jacostang]

I dont know, I can wait until I get back from Pa... I hope!

[svtrichie]

if you are going to be out of town when it comes in, I will be glad to pick it up and take care of it while you are gone!!

[OUR P51]

Jacostang, very cool ride indeed! Is it signed by Richard Petty? Now all you need is a light bar! Looking fwd to seeing it at the first show you bring it to.

1 out of 50? You were in the right place at the right time! Sweet!

Those look to be the GT/CS wheels in the bigger picture.

I hear ya, Denise has all the instructions on photos and such but I think Berge wants to keep it in the show room for a while..

Your right, its a Cal Special Ordered and then the package is added after that.. I dont know what number it will be and until its actually here... Kind of just waiting...

[svtrichie]

So is the challanger or the green stang coming out of the garage!?! You have quite the collection of stangs, maybe one day I will be there.

[Jacostang]

Well, the Challenger and the 2011 will most likely be in the garage but time to shuffle some things around...

[Jacostang]

Got the call today that its in El Mirage at the depot on Grand Ave! Looks like it will be here just as I leave for Pa.... DOH!

[BLK03SVT]

Thanks and Berge is going to do the transformation from GT CS to Pace Car.. I will try my best to take pictures of that!
I tried to bribe Dave and Greg to switch the wheels off the GT 500 on to my car but noooooo!

[05mustangman]

oh nice! cant wait to see the transformation!

[Jacostang]

All done and in the show room at Berge! The Body shop did a fantastic job adding all the 500 specific items. Connor has already claimed the car as "His 5.0"... Someday....Its been a rough couple of weeks though, we lost a Paramedic in Glendale over the weekend on top of all the others :redface:... But enjoy the pictures...The guys at Berge thought the one with the Mesa Crown Vic was funny!:yes:

[svtrichie]

looks awesome dave. I am waiting for the info on the new boss that is coming to the streets. Have you got any info on it yet??

[Jacostang]

Noting yet but they are keeping quite the tight lips.. I think they are waiting for the Z28 to come out then back over the top with the Boss!! Camaro Crusher for sure!

[Wades GT]

Very cool.

[05mustangman]

Totally sick Dave! cant wait to see it! you better be taking it up to flag! then we could hopefully start up our own class. lol.

[OUR P51]

Hey Dave,
Sorry to hear about your losses on your squad...a tough time indeed...

Congrats on finally getting your Pace Car! It's beautiful!
What # did it turn out to be?
How long will it be at Berge in the showroom?
Are you going to SAAC 35 for the mini GT/CS convention?
Paul Newitt would love to see this up close and personal!
We are driving out after work on the 25th.
Open Track at Infineon! So you could "test drive" it with no additional cop cars behind you! LoL!

[IansBAJ]

Look at that what a beautiful car! Did it cost you 300k like the guy at Barret Jackson! lol

[Jacostang]

Thanks guys, I would love to go to that meet but no way this time, Flagstaff is the next one for me and the fam...

[JoeT]

Wow Dave great job! Wish I could afford to do that. I sold my 80 Trans Am 2 weeks ago and bought a 1986 Indy Pace Car Convertible Vette with 65k miles, all 86 Corvette Convertibles are considered Indy Pace Car replicas, only 7000 made. No booing and hissing. :sticktonge: Really bought it to resell. Still have the Mach 1.

Look forward to seeing the new PaceCar. I got plates for my vette that say NDY500



So far my garage hasn't exploded. :flamegun:

[4Jenna]

Awesome Dave, can't wait to see it!!!

-Chris

[Jacostang]

Thanks everyone and today I must say WOW to this new 5.0... Getting on the freeway today since it has over 100 miles now and banged on it through the gears... 115 before I got off the ramp.. I think I tinkled a bit....:sticktonge:

[Blackmagic1]

I think I tinkled a bit....:sticktonge:[/QUOTE] Oh Great ! Time for "waterproof" seatcovers !!:biglaugh::biglaugh::pepper:

[Blackmagic1]

Joe, yer mustang looks HUGE next to the vette !

[silvrsvt]

[kbldoc]

Congrats Dave, Very sweet!!

[JoeT]
