Default 70 Judge Tribute Build

So the driver is due for a refresh, and felt since I was going to go through it, might as well make it something worth while. I've always like the 70 GTOs, the styling is killer, the sheet metal is all available, so it makes sense to go in that direction.

I did the 442 tribute for my daughter, she loves it, so figured I stick with a winged car and make it a Judge for my son (he's inline for a classic).

Figured I'd track the progress here, and if I need any help or anything, what better place to go?

General Project Outline: Clone a 70 GTO Judge from my 71 LeMans Sport. Modern comforts, overdrive, AC, sound and thermal control, nice sound system, and low maintenance.

Here's a shot of what I'm starting with, many have seen posts of this car over the years, at PY shows, cruises, etc.

Also attached is a couple of examples of the direction I'm going, either an Orbit Orange or an Atoll Blue, and obviously, this build isn't going to be correct, just a 'tribute'. If I grabbed someone's car here, um, thanks!
