Unlike
the production years before ’95 (’78 and ’86),
Corvette Pace Cars in 1995 were not assigned a VIN sequence
of their own, but rather assumed VINs that were mixed in
with those of other Corvettes assembled at the same time.
As is the usual case at the assembly plant, these cars were
not produced in a single batch but were rather placed in
among other Corvettes as they came down the assembly line
at Bowling Green. Therefore, the Pace Car VINs themselves
are not in sequence, although they are in numerical order.
Early
in the Spring of 1995, Chevrolet issued a print-out of the
“Indy Pace Car Build”, attaching Sequence Numbers
to all 527 of the VINs that were assigned to the Pace Car
Replicas. The computer read-out on this original Build sheet
was poorly printed, and some entries were missing, or difficult
or impossible to read. However, in April, Chevy superseded
this list and issued a new “Domestic Build Sequence”,
which was complete and readable. This Domestic Build list
contained 502 entries.
Up through
sequence number 293, the new Domestic Build list is the
same as the earlier (total Build) one. But after number
293, 23 of the VINs were shifted to a “Canada/export”
list, with a different sequencing, numbered 001 – 023.
So 502 + 23 = 525, thus leaving 2 VINs unaccounted for,
and without Sequence Numbers. These VINs are (last 5 digits)
13551 and 13640, which, in the original (total) Build list,
correspond to “old” Seq.#496 and 515. As of the
date of this posting (Feb.’08), these cars have not
been registered with the Corvette Pace Car Registry, nor
otherwise sequenced, to our knowledge, by GM.

Only
2 ’95 Pace Cars had the good fortune to have their
sequence numbers resemble their VINs: Seq.# 69 (11569) and
Seq.#211 (12211).
