Pacer Wagon & Ute Register

Purchased Oct/Nov '06 in Sydney. Currently awaiting a trip North

Found up a back road in south/west QLD dirt road off a dirt off a dirt road..... Owner lives on the coast somewhere, been on the farm for 20+ years only just been moved out of the barn in room for more hay, won't sell because "A family member wants to do it up some time soon"..... Unlikely is my guess

Previously owned by Mike Fawcett, Darwin. Purchased from him in late 2009

This is a 7-S-45 Pacer Wagon. It is in original daily driver condition. Bought by Mike from Victoria in early 2004, was advertised for sale in Unique Cars in approximately 1998 as Mike recalls.

This is a genuine VFX Hemi engined Pacer Station Wagon. The last one of two built.

Its full body number is VFX 7 S 45 - 20.

It is in surprisingly complete and relatively rust free condition. All going well the plan is to commence restoration during 2009.

VFX7S20-397 is a boring white ute that was pulled from the production line in 1970. It was cut directly behind the cab bringing the wheelbase into line with the design of the impending Valiant Charger. It was then cut again behind the real axle and shortened a second time making the total vehicle length the same identical to the Charger. Most people know it as one of "the Mule utes" that were used to fool Ford and Holden during Charger development and track testing!

397 is for all purposes a factory Hemi6pack VFX Pacer ute. It is complianced as a special and is the only verified VF Pacer ute known to have left the factory! It was built with a full VG Pacer interior, had a variety of technical specifications in its time including initial testing of the 265 6 pack engine, and factory testing of the 340 4 speed settup.
