double checked and the sticker was worn a bit by that date.. all i could make out is a 5.. so i can assue 5-5-89 or 5-15-89 or 5-25-89.. the sticker wasnt too healthy to begin with.

I also looked at the rear quarters and they did at on time have the nascar stickers on the rear quarters so this car at one point had more stickers than it does now..

Thanks for trying. ;) If the car was built that late, I don't see any way it could be an actual pace car considering the race was run on February 19th, 1989.

The 1989 NASCAR Winston Cup Season began February 12 and ended November 19. IIRC the TGP and the TTA were both utilized for the entire season. I would half to agree with Matt, I am pretty sure all the pace cars were built in late 88 and early 89 but who really knows,  :dunno:  It may have been a Days Of Thunder car... My 1989 was built in 2-89. No paperwork saying it was a pace car but I do have paperwork from Pontiac saying it was at Bristol, Richmond, Darlington, etc...

A guy on the board used to have a Days of Thunder car and it was built either very late '89 or in the early months of 1990.
