1983 Buick Skyhawk Turbo PPG Pace Car Prototype.

PPG Automotive Refinish would commission special promotional vehicles usually from the big three manufacturers to be used as Pace Cars at Indycar racing events in North America.

They were driven by lady racing drivers only, I have had the pleasure of being driven around the Molson Indy Toronto circuit a few times in different PPG Pace vehicles over the years.
