Car of the Week: 1967 Chevrolet Camaro Pace Car

Camaro's owner talked his dad into keeping this pristine '67 Camaro pace car after a warehouse fire. Needless to say, that was the correct decision.

Lance Tarnutzer inherited his high standards in collector cars from his father, Dick. He also inherited a lot of cars.

Dick was a well-known collector and enthusiast who, at one time, had a collection of about 250 fabulous cars, many of them convertibles. Most of the cars were displayed in the family's automotive shrine, Dells Automobile Museum in Wisconsin Dells, Wis. Sadly, a warehouse fire back in 1999 gutted the collection and claimed many of the best machines in the bunch, but a number of special cars survived.

One of those was a fabulous 1967 Camaro Indy Pace Car that Lance says was actually for sale at one time. He managed to convince his dad that the car needed to stay, and he hasn't regretted pleading his case for one minute.

Old Cars We'd Buy That: 1959 Cadillac Sedan DeVille

Get your fill of fins! We'd love to buy this 1959 Cadillac Sedan DeVille.

There are several dusty-looking cars we'd like to rescue and give a new home from VanDerBrink Auctions' upcoming John Agee Collection Sale. The auction will take place in Lincoln, Neb. December 12th, and feature a small group of really attractive cars. This 1959 Cadillac Sedan DeVille might be our favorite of the group! She needs a bath, but everything seems to be there, and she has only 26,864 miles on the clock!!
