1998 Chevrolet Corvette Indy 500 Pace Car Convertible Why This Car Is Special 1998 marked the return of the Corvette Convertible as well as the return of the Corvette as the Pace Car for the Indianapolis 500. For that occasion, Chevrolet produced the 1998 Pace Car replica that featured a color scheme that was like no other. It was an exclusive Radar Blue paint scheme with extensive Indy 500 graphics, yellow wheels, and yellow interior accents and it served as the official pace-car from the race with the replicas that were virtually identical to the production model variants that were built to commemorate the event. Unlike most other pace cars, which require mechanical modifications to bolster the car's performance to meet the rigors of pacing the massive racetrack, the Corvette came equipped with enough horsepower to handle the demands of leading the pack with ease. We have a 1998 Chevrolet Corvette Indy 500 Pace Car Convertible here at Skyway Classics that is one of only 547 made, extremely low-mileage example with just 8354 miles recorded, equipped with 6-Speed Manual Transmission, and is a stunning, time-capsule, original condition accompanied by the original window sticker Features 1998 Chevrolet Corvette Indy 500 Pace Car Convertible 5.7L V-8 Engine All-aluminum block Unique camshaft design 10.1:1 compression ratio Sequential Fuel Injection 6-speed manual transmission Rear-wheel Drive type ABS and driveline Traction control Power Steering and brakes 4-wheel Disc Brakes Yellow Painted Factory aluminum wheels Black sidewall performance tires Air conditioning AM/FM stereo seek-scan Radio Remote keyless entry Heated mirrors Dual Exhaust Twin yellow leather bucket seats Black convertible top Factory carpet Center console Cockpit and dash with all the factory gauges Corvette factory controls Power windows, locks, seats, mirrors, trunk release Tilt Corvette steering wheel Bose sound system Painted in the factory exclusive Radar Blue paint scheme Indy 500 graphics...
