70 Bermuda Blue Judge on eBay
Pretty uniquely ordered car for a RamAir 3 Automatic
3.90/4.33 Axle with Auto on the Column and Bench Seat eBay Link https://www.ebay.com/itm/1970-Pontia....c100009.m1982 I think have only seen one other Ram3 Judge Automatic i can recall with Special Order 3.90/4.33 gears. Or it may have been this same car with a previous owner. The previous files i have on one will not open. Car appears to have been rock solid and sheltered from the elements most of its life. Not a real bad asking price at $45.5k if enough things checked out. No mention of present axle/ratio/posi status Needs some "sorting out" type stuff Stripes are wrong color, and Quarter Stripes are backwards / on the wrong sides. Undercarriage was a quicky and not too sure Arlington did red oxide bottoms. Looks like maybe driver side of front seat was repaired with pinpoint breathable vinyl. Trim rings, center caps, etc.. Bermuda Blue, 3.90 Auto on Column with Ladder Bars Would have been a fun car for dating and street matches |

I'd say it's a 433 car due to the gear adapter being on the PHS

4.33 car...
& from last pic, the original Pontiac 8.2 HD Safe-T-Track has been replaced with a gray iron Pontiac 8.2 rear. the Arlington 70's I've owned had red oxide under body, have a solid original floor pan cut out of one along with other original body parts. Shame, a little more effort couldn't have been put into a few details.

This one was listed somewhat recently, on ebay and craigslist.
The uniqueness of the bench, auto on column and special axle is what I like.

Are those data plate rivets correct?

Look like original cowl tag rivets & dum dum treatment to me.

All RAIV automatic cars received the Speedo Adapter. This particular Judge has 4.33 gears. RAIV's came with 3.90 gears as standard equipment, so whenever you see the Special Order Axle option on a RAIV invoice, it's 4.33 gears.

This is a Ram3 car Mike
But your RamIV definition on special axle is correct , of course. Inconclusive whether this Ram3 Judge was 3.90 or 4.33 , it would have special axle and speedo adapt in either scenario. On Ram3 Automatic |

Fake ladder bars. If you study the pic, you'll notice they only replace the lower
control arms. Upper arms are still in place too. So, other than the deleted rear swaybar, it's entirely cosmetic. |

Has standard log exhaust manifolds on it too.

670 heads, side-drain oil pan.....

Car is equipped with its born with, numbers matching, ram air 3, 400 c.i. engine, ( Wrong heads but original born with heads come with it) which has been freshened up and automatic transmission (numbers matching also) with a mild stall converter. Automatic on the column with a bench seat with factory rally dash with tach. The majority of the red oxide primer is still on the bottom of the car and it's never had a piece of metal changed on the bottom.The car is not a trailer queen, but a very nice quality example drivable car and priced accordingly.

I can tell everyone that this car is a nice car but has most certainly NOT been sheltered from the elements all it's life I was friends with the previous owner before his passing and this car was painted Orbit Orange for a large portion of it's life (the current owner painted it back to the Bermuda Blue and did track down the original engine, which was in a 67' Firebird and probably why there was a picture of the 670 heads as the Firebird's engine was in the Judge, the engine from the Judge ended up in the Firebird after Roy (original owner) was in an accident with the Judge that wiped out a good portion of the drivers side and was parked for a number of years, in the current sellers defense I am not sure they know the "history" of this car ..... but it is a real Judge that I tried to buy for years but Roy just wouldn't let it go...I knew where the original engine was hiding and that O-O wasn't it's original color too....well Roy passed away and I was not financially ready and missed my chance ......
