Custom 1993 Chevy C1500 Indy Pace Pickup Truck

1 of 1500 Built – OBS – GMT 400

1993 Chevy Indy Pace Truck (C1500) as it was when purchased from a private party on June 13, 2015.

One of the main reasons I purchased the pickup was to haul my Triumph Bonneville motorcycle to track days and other events.

I purchased black steel wheels and snow tires for winter driving.

These Boss wheels and Hankook Ventus tires were on the truck when I purchased it.
This setup with large wheels and short tires was not the retro look I wanted.

The original Indy Pace Truck side graphics were only included in 1993.
Replacement graphics were not available when the truck was repainted in 2018.

The engine bay with the original 350 V8 engine had a Whipple supercharger added. This was the setup when I purchased it from a private party on June 13, 2015. It has since been upgraded to a Holley Sniper fuel-injected, 383 Stroker from Blueprint Engines.

This website is dedicated to the 1993 Chevy Indy Pace Pickup (C1500 – VIN – 1GCDC14K4PZ233704) that I purchased from a private party in Illinois on June 13, 2015. Based on my research, I believe only about 1500 of these were made.

I recently received an email from Lance Walker who claimed to be one of the earlier owners of this truck. He sent me these photos of the truck taken when he owned it.
