Here is a significant picture in my life. Feb '71. 11th birthday standing in the middle of the street next to my brother in his car, a 69 GTO Judge. It was the first GTO I ever rode in and left quite an impression to say the least. It didn't get me into Pontiacs as I was into them about 3 years by that time. I am holding my birthday present, a puppy he got me for me. What did I name him? Judge. He lasted about 15 years. Good dog.
Note this GTO Judge already wears the 'wrong' fender decal and no stripes. Brother wrecked it in 197O in the Show Low area and was towed back to the dealer in Scottsdale where he bought it. Was repaired and repainted and dealer could not get the correct decals even though it was only a 1 year or so old!
Within 2 more years, that car would have a roller cammed 428, race 4OOthm and 4.88 rear gear. Plus, he pulled off the entire front clip and installed an fiberglass tilt front end on it! It was well known for doing wheelstands on Central ave in 1973/4 era. Was one of the quickest cars in the valley and definately the quickest Pontiac on the street in Phoenix. He street raced almost every night.
I later bought that glass front end on my 15th birthday and still own it.
