Earliest RA IV Judge of Color???
 
I believe the earliest CR RA IV has surfaced.

Has any new RA IV Judges of other colors surfaced?

I have a Liberty Blue on Blue car. 3A on trim tag which corresponds to PHS and final dealer invoice receipt date.

EARLY RAM IV JUDGE
 
I have been bombarded with messages, no this is not my RAM IV car from Toronto never ever was my car. Hope this clears things up, however the Crystal Turquoise 073 72 72 Baltimore RAM IV Convertible is Executive Order POPO Car The Original Dealer was York Mills Pontiac. The Black On Black 1969 RAM IV Judge stick car 433 axle 7d6 10 10 that now is in Taylors South Carolina owned by a member on this board (LUVAGOAT) sold out of that dealership also. It is the only Judge known to have had a Kleenex box from the factory.

Those sound cool hobi!

I saw someone on PY has a Silver/Blue RA IV car too?

Maybe they will share some build date information?

Not sure what a 7d6 is?

Judge273 03-25-2014 11:31 AM

I saw this in latest HPP too:

Not sure if it is zone specific or others memos exist?

The Silver/Blue RAIV was formerly owned by Greg Teeters and now is owned by a PY member (forgot his user name)

battery is already dead on my new decoder ring


>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>


The Silver - Blue 69 IV 4spd Greg had was a GTO
Mega-collector in MD had it in his cave before.
Greg put an IV engine back in it - outran the back glass - then sold it unrestored.
no idea after that
[unless he recently had another Silver-Blue car]

Earlier than my CR IV Judge Attachment 358148

Judge273 03-26-2014 08:19 AM

Richard, I have yours as the earliest CR RA IV Judge. Very nice original one as well!

Now, I was wondering about the other color ones and any info on those cars....

Saw a few new ones surface, but little info on build dates. etc..

Not many want to share info these days?

MattB78 03-26-2014 10:57 AM

Judge273,

Did you get that car from a guy named George in Oklahoma? My Dad knew him and the owner before that. I rememeber being a kid and seeing a dusty Liberty blue RA4 4 speed Judge in my Dad's friend's garage.

Judge273 03-26-2014 12:04 PM

MattB78,

I got the car from Don White who got it from George Reaves from Anna, TX 2005 is the last known address. I have a old Texas Insurance card going back to 1996 with George as owner and also name of original owner from Houston. Ron Williford?

Don saw it at Norwalk making a run with George driving. Is this his driveway?

Love to hear more stories!

Judge273 03-27-2014 08:50 AM

I believe this is the owner before George Reaves. It fits the timeframe and came from George I believe. Anyone know of Glen Dotson?

Mike that driveway shot is the original owners in Michigan. That was before he moved to Texas. I had a lengthy discussion with him when I owned the car. I thought I told you that.

Judge273 03-28-2014 07:53 AM

Thanks Ram4King, You know how when you get older memory is fading? You probably told me lots of stuff that day I picked up car, and now its a blurr...

When I look at the dealer invoice and see address with OO info. I see an apartment number in Rochester, MI and with those pix of the apartments with some early Judge shots has a little boy too. Car has sticker in window still, and I have that as well.

Please fill in some more gaps for me, as I will put together a timeline of ownership with these details. Any help Don, as you're the one with the sharp memory, and you spoke with the original owner too. I never did get a hold of him sadly.

Not sure if he is still with us?

Judge273 04-07-2014 11:11 AM

I'm getting the gaps filled in by guys who knew car in the day! The Judge was run with a shortblock 455 RA IV heads and turbo 400 with OEM block and M-21 preserved.

But, still lost to Mike Miners Black/Gold T-37 head to head! Mike had his 455 HO tuned better!! This is a great forum for the exchange of information!!!

I have the (non Judge) Silver / Blue 4 speed RA IV car now. Does someone on the forum own a Silver / Blue RA IV Judge ?

Judge273 04-07-2014 02:58 PM

I might have blurred your car silver/blue RA IV with another silver /blue Judge. I think that Judge was a RA III now that I think about it.

Not many in that color combo. Rare!

Judge273 04-08-2014 10:54 AM

Anyone know some contact information on Brian Parker?

On Matt's advice I posted a thread in lobby because many knew his father Aubrey.

Tracking the history is fun as I have found out some cool drag racing info too!
