Not trying to start any trouble! LOL! So I was in my garage with my Judge, when my neighbors grandson stops by. He's around 10 years old and when I have my car out, he usually stops by and says he really likes my car. He's sort of milling around looking at my stuff then he blurts out "My mom says your car is fake" I'm not sure he even knows what that means, and I didn't ask him. I was a little ruffled but kept it to myself......in my head......your mom's breasts are fake! LOL...I really think the car Auctions they show on tv are to blame. I'm guessing she sees Judges going for tons of money and there is no way a guy like me could afford a "Real" one. Oh well.....I won't hold it against the kid! I rev my engine now when I see his mom outside!

Holy crap, that's great!

I'm not a fan of my neighbors either & can only imagine the things they have to say.

[Baron Von Zeppelin]

your mother cheats, and you look just like the plumber
...oops

That was classic with the kid dropping the whole bomb.

Past neighbors' kids have always told me / said things I could tell came from the parents mouths but seldom started with "Dad said" or "Mom said".
Kids are Great

Years ago I sold my partially restored "fake" 70 GS 455 Stage 1 convert. The guy finished it, pretty nice car, he was quite proud of it but he knew it was a fake.

He was at a shopping center one day, as he walked back to his car two guys not old enough to drive bicycled up, got off their bikes, looked the car over and as he arrived at his car one kid said "Nice GS, too bad it's a fake!!!"

I must be the lucky one. My neighbors are great and always ready to answer the call when I have a problem. In exchange, they know I am happy to flip them the keys on occasion to make the Dairy Queen run with their kids.

This weekend was especially cool though as I was cleaning and mopping the HRG. I had cars stacked up in the driveway and when it came time to roll up the garage door to escape the wet floor there were three young boys gathered around the NSX staring at it. The bravest one spoke up and asked if it was an electric car. In as deadpan a voice as possible I replied that it actually was powered by nuclear fusion. The response was priceless when he said "Cool, I really like it".

I've already had to explain this to people and my Judge isn't done yet. "They never made white Judges" I have already heard that about ten times now. I figure that I will hear that about 10,000 more times at shows and gatherings. It's not the same subject, but I suspect other Goat owners with a bench seat and column shifter can relate- I never get thru a show or cruise night without at least one expert informing me that my red '68 is a fake because we all know they never made GTOs with a bench seat and a shifter on the column.... You can even try to educate the experts on the 242 and they still can't grasp the concept.

My '69 Chevelle SS396 is a bench seat column shift car with a 134 vin... I hear it with that one too... I need to quit buying oddball cars.

[craigs69]

I have to laugh.................I frequently get asked if my Judge clone is the real deal.

In about a month (when my car gets out of the shop) I'll have the reverse problem.
My 69 non-Judge GTO is painted CR. It sports a spoiler, but no stripes or Judge badging of any kind.

I'm guessing there weren't many non Judge CR goats in 69?

[post toastie]

That's great! At a local car show my 70 judge was called a le mans because they could see the drum brakes, but that person was in their thirties. Does that count?

[projectfolly]

I've had a few people question the legitimacy of my Judge based on the fact it doesnt have a hood tach!

[Judge273]

My favorite is when I stop for gas with my 69 Judge.

People ask me why I painted it Blue....

I say because I like Blue...

[1969GTO]

Sorry to here all of the sad My Judge stories.............

I wish I had a Judge............

[Interceptor]

Somewhat understandable to the lay person, it seems every 69-72 I see advertised for sale these days is a Judge, and they sure as heck can't ALL be Judges . . .

eehhh, they're over rated any way

[PMD1969]

Every time the little pos comes over taunt him as to why doesn't mommy have a Judge or why doesn't mommy buy you one? Also, ask him why mommy's Honda "Odd"ysey is so slow? I like the fake tata's one myself.

[tripower]

When driving my 70 Judge to work a few years back, staff would ask me if I was going to law school. Had to explain what a "Judge" was

[marxjunk]

"YOURE ADOPTED" would have been my response...send him home cryin'
