Indy 500 Track Car Owners, READ ON .....
The
Pace Car Registry has been contacted by the National
Corvette Museum in search of the owners of the (57)
2007 Indianapolis 500 Pace cars that were assigned
for use at the Speedway in 2007.
They
have in their posession the "Photo Books"
that were developed for each of the cars.
What
is a Photo Book? When the cars were distributed
to the keepers of the cars during the race (IMS
Festival Committee, Track officials, etc.),
they were also given a disposable camera and
told to take photos of the places they took
their cars - Indy 500 Festival events, or wherever.
These cameras were returned with the cars after
the race, and these photo books were created.
Photo
content varies per book, based on what photos
were taken, but there is a "standard"
photo set at the minimum.

The
Museum has MOST, but not ALL of the books. To inquire
about how you may obtain yours, please contact Betty
at the National
Corvette Museum at betty@corvettemuseum.com,
or by phone at
1-800-53-VETTE.
You
will be required to provide the full VIN of your car,
your name and contact information, and Track car #
to prove ownership. Betty can explain more, so call
her ASAP.
Pictured
here are some additional photos of the book.
The
book has a black "felt" like feel
with an aluminum front cover and photo of the
2007 Pace car sitting on the bricks at the entrance
to Gasoline Alley. Also on the cover is an engraved
plate with the vehicle's VIN number, 2007 Indy
500 event logo, and 50th anniversary IMS Festival
logo.
The
inside cover has printed versions of these logos,
and also identifies who the car was assigned
to along with the VIN and track car numbers.

Photos
are full color photographs (not computer printouts)
that are 4"x6" in size.
And
there is plenty of room in the album for expansion
of your own photos of your car, or the event
if you were there!
HURRY
and call Betty ASAP to make sure you get your
book while they still have them. Tell her that
you read about this opportunity on our website.
