The Colonial Motors Judge (The Banshee) was a 69 super duty driven by Jess Jessen who wrenched at Colonial Motors. This car took part in the trials conducted by Milt Shornack and the crew from Ace Wilson's Royal Pontiac when they trailered to Florida for trials (this adventure is described in Milt's book). The car is still around and is in the hands of a well known Pontiac afficianado, Colonial Motors was a performance shop that reciprocated with Royal Pontiac. An interesting feature of this car is the placement of gauges in the vinyl portion of the dash that mirrored the factory mule created by Milt Shornack.While the 69 taken by Royal to Florida had some "problems". Jess Jessen's "Banshee" ran flawlessly in the trials.
