Did they have stripe and decal delete option?

Unless it's got a RA-IV with that M-22

The plates (last registration) on it are for LaPorte county IN, circa late seventies, early eighties; so that's an indication that it is probably a 'homegrown' survivor car.
For what that's worth.

Pontiac.... Always one step ahead of everyone else. Even Henry Ford didn't think of using pressure treated wood in his floors.

Not that I'm aware of. And I'm also not aware of a decal delete option for standard GTO's as this car is devoid of those decals as well.

Loosely fitted to expand and contract.

What about this car makes it appear to necessarily be a Judge?

The Ram Air III and IV 400s were optional on non Judge GTOs.

Nothing. You could build a similarly optioned non-Judge if you wanted. But how many people did? That, and I'm thinking that the Pepper Green have tilted the odds considerably. Until someone gets the PHS, it's Schrödinger's cat

These do seem to be the 'trim-ring-less' Judge type Rally II wheels don't they?
Not really into Judges but weren't they a slightly different design than the wheels designed for trim rings?

You're probably thinking of the JW rally wheels. Standard was 14", but they had an optional 15" that was essentially a 14" center with a 15" outer. IIRC, 70 and 71 only? The ones on this car appear to be 14s, but I'm also not into the Judge. Considering that it still has center caps, that missing trim ring you pointed out also hints at this car's possible Judge status.

There's nothing in the ad to say it is a Judge.

The seller simply put the word JUDGE in the description quite possibly because he knew it would garner a lot more "hits" on his ad thereby widening his target market.

Yep. Just like every Hot Rod has a "Corvette motor", every '69 and '70 GTO must be a Judge.

Says all original paint and everything. Not sure about the dash, though. Looks too white.

Whoever painted these stripes needs to be beat with a squared off baseball bat.
