I can't tell about the convert., but you'll notice on the hardtop that it was supplied by a certain Pontiac dealer. I'm sure that after the race it was simply 'delettered', and returned to dealer stock, and probably driven as a demonstrator for a while then sold as such. Unless you would have signed documentation with pics from that dealer stating that the car was used as a pace car, there would be no way to prove it. And back then, it was probably worth more without the history of being a pace car.
