This is interesting to me so I've attached 3 pictures from the March 1969 Car Craft. From the later pages of the article, it indicates that this shows pictures of the Judge and Trans Am as they were in November 1968 when Car Craft was able to look at them.

The Judge has the paint slash at that point and the prototype wing. It also has the early style ram air cable connector that the early Baltimore cars came with and the early one piece rubber hose from the lower ram air pan to the hood.

The Trans Am is the early silver (I believe it is silver) prototype. There is also a picture of what appears to be a production Trans Am in the upper right of the second picture attached below, but this picture must have been obtained later from Pontiac because it was not taken at the drag strip as the other pictures. The magazine says that the front fender "scoops" were non-functional on this silver car.

The magazine seems to mislabel the engine pictures as the Judge's engine is clearly the one on the right in the last picture attached below.

I believe if you save the pictures and enlarge them, you can see some more detail.

This picture has absolutely zippo to do with the Car Craft magazine, but it's not worth a separate thread. (Of course when we have threads devoted to make believe Judge Clone car classes, what is not worthy..................? lol)

I ordered this from a 1982 AC Delco magazine advertisement and the folder over packaging contains Ken Dallison prints of the 1982 Z-28, 1982 Trans Am, 1969 Judge and 1968 Hurst Olds. It does have the AC/GM/Delco logo's on the back so maybe it is collectible.

I am probably the only person that ordered one of these..............................

Old magazines are great to look at.

Great magazine scan and pics!

Bet, are you not missing a page from the magazine above? Seems the 2nd and 3rd pics are not consequent to each other and that another page should be there in between

Thats worth a few dollars to the right collector. Very cool set.

LOL!

...and again, I say: LOL!

My son has those hanging on the wall in his bedroom....

We got them at the last GM Heritage Center open house. They were giving them away as door prizes.

Now I know the history on those!

When only one is purchased, there are a lot left! How funny.

Did they give away the prints in the brown fold over that has Ken Dallison's name on the front?

(I just got a digital camera and wanted to post the magazine and the prints to see if anyone else had seen these.)

You never know what the HC will be giving away as lovely parting gifts.

BTW, I purchased two sets of the Dallison/A.C. prints in '82. Still have one set.

I'll have to check. It seems they came in a manila envelope or something generic like that.

I'm also thinking there was one more print of a different vehicle, but I'll need to verify that too.

Eric - IIRC, you chose a different lovely parting gift, like a GMC book or something?

I picked the Oldsmobile 100th anniversary coffee table book, "Setting the Pace." If the Dallison illustration portfolio had been available during my visit, I would have tried to pick that up as well. I may not have gotten far with two items in my hands. I did notice that several visitors had arms full of giveaway items. We were asked to take only one item, but, obviously, some guests were not asked to share the wealth.

BTW, the cars featured in the Dallison/A.C. Delco promo portfolio are: Silver '68 Hurst/Olds, Carousel red '69 GTO The Judge, Red '82 Firebird T/A, and Silver/Blue '82 Camaro IPC. Also offered with this promotion was a nice A.C. Delco fender cover. I purchased two of these items as well.
