History

Fred Pacer behind Professor Zündapp in 2011.

Fred Pacer is a 1975 AMC Pacer that grew up in Kenosha, Wisconsin, United States. He would spend his time by hanging out with his friends that were AMC Gremlins and AMC Pacers. When he got older, the car parts factory in in his town closed and he started looking for work in other places. Eventually he signed up for work at the Oil Rig platform in the Pacific Ocean. He had become a henchman of the Pacer crime family. In June 2011, he together with other Lemon henchmen traveled to Tokyo, Japan. He was present in the room when Professor Zündapp tested his EMP weapon on a captured C.H.R.O.M.E spy, Rod Redline, killing him the process. Later on, he, together with other Lemons, attempted to kidnap and kill Mater, who had intel intercepted from Redline. They were stopped by Finn McMissile with whom they fought in an ally. During the fight, Fred was thrown into the upper part of an elevator by McMissile, that then lifted in the air. Soon after, an unnamed Trunkov crashed into the elevator. As Finn shot the cable hoisting the elevator up, it (with Fred Pacer still on top of it) landed on the Trunkov's knocked out body, crushing (and possibly killing) him. It is unknown if Fred either died too, got back up and drove away later on, or got arrested.

Bio

Meet the Cars

• Fred misses his early days growing up in Kenosha. Back then, he didn't have to worry about being the toughest Lemon on the block, or where he would get his spare parts. All he had to think about was kicking back and relaxing with fellow Pacers and Gremlins. As time went on, the factory parts dried up in his hometown, and Fred had to look for new adventures in faraway places. That led him to sign up for work on a mysterious oil rig in the deep Pacific. As long as the pay is steady and the parts don't dry up, Fred Pacer is not complaining.
