Default 1970 RA IV JUDGE Blue/Blue w/ pink stripes

The Judge in factory original Atoll Blue in its unrestored original Blue Interior. VIN Matching RA IV original block and M40 Automatic (1 of 72) with the desirable 4:33 rearend optioned well for the drag strip.

Probably one of the most fresh XP motors, PD transmissions, and XM rears left in existense with only 37K original documented miles.

Inside are bucket seats with center console, floor mats, AM Radio, Rally gauges with tach (added). Wood wheel with power brakes, and power steering (original removed and in box to go with car) Manual steering on car currently as preferred by former owner Dan Jensen who restored car with Scott Tiemann.

The restoration was to a very nice complete car that was brought to Scott Tiemann shop around 1997. Soon after coming to Scott's shop it was bought by Dan Jensen who is Scott's neighbor, and they decided to build Dan a points judged trailer queen, with a pass down the dragstrip to see what she could do. Dan documented the frame for Muscle Car Review that appeared in the magazine. Have lots of pix during restoration that document events. If you are aware of Scott's and Dan's work this car will not disappoint your expectations.

The motor got a quicky rebuild with new bearings, and clean up and was discovered to be in exceptional shape. It was also determined that it received 73 SD rods at some point in it's life that are currently in car. Heads were also cleaned up with no milling or porting and are original to car. Distributor is 2011 dated to carand is restored. Carb is also restored WA 270 dated in 1973 which would make it a SR carb. Dynoed at over 390 HP in 2000, and ran a 13.2 at Stanton its first time out.

The car also received 390 out of 400 points at the POCI nationals in Grand Rapids in 2000 it first time judged. It has been stored in a controlled storage and in a car jacket since restored. Car runs great and is started and maintained during my ownership since 2004.

The price is $115,000.00 and you can reach me at 630 710-2764 to discuss car in more detail. But, please only call if you are truly interested in buying car. Here are a few pix of the outside, and more upon email request to mjsparks@sbcglobal.net if you are a serious buyer.

Mike very nice car
I remember back in early 90's or so seeing this car in Dan Jensen's garage with the motor out of it.
At that time, he was was doing a motor refresh for the owner later he ended up buying it.
This would make a great PSD car with the RAIV auto and 4:33's
Hope new owner brings it to Stanton
Regards Rich

Thanks guys! It really is a great car, and lots of nice detailing!! The overspray is very well done as you can see in the pix!!!











I forgot to mention that I have a NOS in the box 270 WA carb dated to this car. I will sell it with car if desired for the right price.

I listed the car in Hemmings for next month. But, did I mention this car is a consistent 13.2 car with a factory stock RA IV? Pure Stock Muscle Car Drag Race is September 18th & 19th at Mid-Michigan Motorplex ...

Wow, after watching the auction and seeing the Blue/Blue auto RA IV Judge vert sell!

That buyer needs the matching hardtop???

Maybe that's the route this one should go? Mecum does a great job in that fall auction.

Took her out yesterday to fill up tank, and strectch the legs. Ran great!

Now she will go into it's car jacket for the winter. Looks like it's going to be a long one as snow is in the forecast this weekend.
