I’d add some stp or Holley stickers to the quarter windows - mayb even one of those dead stickers and hang a garter on the rear view and call it done . That’s how I remember these cars when I was a kid in the 80s lol

You hit the nail on the head!! In the early 1980's, cars in condition like this were selling all over America for $600.00-$1500.00, stickers, fuzzy dice, garter included! I bought a 69 real GTO, silver/black for $700.00. It was in slightly better condition than this orange one and everything was correct. This car could be a decent driver if your into a wrong year, fake Judge , but $30,000.00 in today's market will buy a much better one if your willing to do your homework and really look hard for it.

I'm old enough to remember when dumbasses didn't clone 68/72 Judges and 90% of the Pontiacs didn't have a stupid red air cleaner decal

My mom told me a story about when dad bought a 69 Judge rear spoiler from the dealer to put on the 68. She put her foot down and said "ABSOLUTELY NOT! "
One of the rare few times he actually listened to her regarding cars lol.
