72 GTO 4-speed in Texas at $75K BIN. Judge clones typically state "Judge" in the header, and then point out it's a clone in the description. This car never claims to be a real Judge, but it also doesn't state it's a clone. Decisions were made, and this car went thru a full frame off. The decision to make it a clone was a poor one IMO, maybe in hindsight, because when the Judge wings hit the market it was all the rage to make a clone. Now it seems there's more Judge clones than real GTO's. So this car is stuck in the middle for me regarding its value. It's not a real Judge and doesn't have Ram Air, tho the hood says it does. The air cleaner is an odd choice, but it's better than a chrome Edelbrock or a Buick 400-4 sticker on a 70 dual snorkel. It's a beautiful car and I have no doubt the asking is what the builder has in it. Question is, would you be in for a clone at $75K? Right now, the prices on classic cars is coming down. I know it's not across the board, and cars like these are desirable, but a lot of people don't want the "LOOK AT ME" graphics and wing. When you see a Honda with a wing and a fart pipe, do you say to yourself,
cool? So it's a really nice and rare 72 GTO with a very cool phat padded steering wheel that's had a frame off. What else could you buy for $75K? IMO, this car is going to hard to find a buyer for it. Beautiful car tho... I like looking at it, but it doesn't fit the Boomer vibe I want to be stereotyped as by driving it, I'd rather just drive a GTO, but that's me.

Looking a little closer, the passenger's side exhaust is hanging pretty low to the street. Maybe some sparks fly on speed bumps?
