It looks to be the idaho judge that was transferred to Colorado later.. Marks on left fender are identical:
http://forums.maxperformanceinc.com/...d.php?t=514326 The idaho/Colorado judge was also originally sold in Utah, so it all lines up. I love that color combo.

Can't think of a Judge combo I'd rather have than a white/red RAIV/4-speed. Glad to see it's going to get a proper resto. I enjoyed the suspense a couple years ago when it was first "discovered".

the car went to chicago before going back to wyoming.i had the car bought when it was first found and for sale.at the same time,my brother took his own life.i told the guy that had the car to go ahead and sell it to someone else.at that exact time,with my brother gone,the car meant nothing to me.when i had the chance to get it this time,i got the car.it is being restored in my brothers memory.he liked all the old cars i would restore and loved going to the drag strip with me and my friends,so this one is for him.

Greg, sorry to hear of your loss, the first I heard. Good luck with the resto and keep us updated with pics. The Guilty,HO 69 IV Judge build was a good thread.

car is totally disassembled and waiting to go to the blaster.he does the blasting outside,so now we are just waiting for the right day to blast it.hope to have it blasted by the end of this week,and if all goes well,have it to the paint shop by the week after next.after he cleans the shell,the body will come off and then blast the frame.then the frame will get painted and reassembled.body back on the frame and off to the paint shop.thats the plan,but the weather will dictate progress at this point in time.will try to get some more pics on here soon.

I'll be following along also.
Think i remember hearing or reading about your bad times. Very sad. Not to hi-jack. Lost my closest of two brothers when i was 24. He was living with me up to just before i got married, and made him move out. Moved to Arizona and was gone 6 months later. Found out in the desert(we where told from heat exhaustion). Being older, he's the one that got me into 1st FB's when i was a kid. He raced them from 67-75. And was gon'a help me restore my 67. I bought a 68 a few years go to drive and race while do'n the 67 cause thats what he would of done. Think about him every time i'm mess'n with the birds.
