Posted by Kurt Ernst - The Wayne's World 1976 AMC Pacer. Photos courtesy Barrett-Jackson. According to the latest value guides, a 1976 AMC Pacer in excellent overall condition (but falling short of concours-quality) should be worth in the neighborhood of $6,000, but when that Pacer is the original Mirthmobile, driven by Wayne Campbell and Garth Algar (actually, Mike Myers and Dana Carvey) in the surprise 1992 hit Wayne's World, all bets are off.
