Default 87 indy 500 dakota

I bought a new 87 indianapolis 500 edition pace car Dakota back in 87, knowing they were a limited edition,my truck has a special plate on the dash showing that my truck is # 236 . my question is does anyone know how many of these trucks were built? when it was new I inquired to Dodge as to how many were built but never recieved a response telling me how many they built! they only told me that they were sent out to a local shop to have the graphics applied. they didn't know how many were sent! I tried to contact the graphics shop and they said that they did do the trucks but didn't have a record of how many! anyway I was hoping someone may have some connections to help me find out how special my limited edition really is! If you can help please e-mail me at dodge3406pack@buckeye-express.com

Thanks !!! dave

I looked around. One guy said his was #840. So maybe 1,000 or so.
This place would be the best. If you find out let us know. http://www.productioncars.com/

Back from the dead!

Here's my Indy. Mine is an example of the "Street Side" version. The "Track Side" version looks more like my Son's go-kart replica....

I have very little to no info on these trucks and have searched the web to find nothing...





Google pic!

I have a shot at #250 right now which has the track side graphics... kinda curious of whether it's worth trading off my daily driver for

I take it you ended up pulling the trigger on it. What did you trade for it?
