DESCRIPTION Johnny Lightning did everyone a favor in producing their eight Pace-car/Indy car series. A variety of different colors were used for the Pace Cars, including the correct color. Always offered in a twin-pack with the wining Indy 500 car for the year, these are very nice examples of cars that have seldom if ever been done, in any scale. While the real pace car was white with black stripes, I like this example in nugget gold with black stripes as it matches my real 1970 Oldsmobile Toronado GT, in the same colors and with the same 400 HP, 455 V8.
