    pacemakers were available as a coupe, convertible, brougham (2 dr sedan), or 4 dr sedan. they all share the same 119" wheelbase but the convertible and coupes have less interior space. The two sedans share the same long roofline and short deck but the brougham uses the same doors and quarters as the coupe. all bodies share the same metal from the cowl forward.

    To be more accurate a 6-Pass. Club Coupe - without the back seat it would be a 3-Pass. Business Coupe.



    Club Coupes were priced around $2,145; Business Coupes $1,964.



    There were 34,495 1951 Pacemakers of all body styles produced. (In 1950 they produced 39,455).



    Nitpicking.:D

    Think there wasn't a business coupe after 1951.... could be wrong. Also the rear window shape would be different in a '50 compared to a '51 Pacemaker. Serial numbers for '50 Pacemakers start out either "50A" or "500" For '51 Pacemakers they start out "4A."
  • There was also a roof rack in the trunk of this car when I got it home it looks like an original part. It fits the hudson perfectly was there a roof rack option?

    There was not a roof rack from the factory that I'm aware of, more likely either a dealer or aftermarket option/accessory.

    We have a '52 Pacemaker in our junkyard that had less than 50,000 miles on it that is a business coupe. I know that the rear window shape is different from 51 vs. 52..........
  • how much you asking for it?

    There was a "3-Pass. Coupe" offered in the Pacemaker lineup in 1952 - most likely was a business coupe, tho it wasn't listed as such.
