Car really looks Great - and all the hard work is already done.
Gotta love it from that perspective !

I wouldn't do any further stamping on the block. imo
Very very few SR's have any additional information//data stamps on them.
I think that was very loose protocol.

You asked about Buildsheet location prospects in the other thread.
Since the gas tank is new, the springs of the seats and under carpet layment are next best bets.

However, i have very few Arlington samples at all.
o'Ph might have more info being a Texan and having parted out numerous cars.
I'm not sure if they were even always typically found on Arlington cars.
The lack of specimens i have on file makes me wonder ...

If i had a White 70 Judge - it would get WT7'ed - unless it had Blue or Green interior.
With the old myth about Arlington Only WT7 ,,, not many would dispute it.
Most would likely expect it to be WT7 .

Pontiac experts

take a look at the engine shot of my car. note that I do NOT have this car in my possession until next week and I have only had a muscle car friend of mine look it over when it was on the west coast. He did verify the WT code block, PD automatic and XK rear but no specifics on carb, distributor or other misc items.

please comment on what intake is on this car. it appears aluminum with the Winters logo on the top and the secondary heat riser appears to be mounted correctly to a crossover...what do you see?

At minimum its a 2-piece factory aluminum (winters logo)
Each year had a different part number//casting number from 69-72
You'll have to wait and see it defacto

Thanks Baron Led Zeppelin

That gives me hope that there may be other items that were used on the WT block ie Carb, distributor, etc.. I'm hoping its the correct 9799084 intake.

The transport driver is supposed to show up here on Monday...the day we're getting 10-15" of snow .

Once I get the car into the garage I will post a new thread here to let others live vicariously through my exploits of 'running the numbers' on the car...should be fun.

More soon

Carl

I know that we all appreciate old school photos of Judges from back in the day so here is one for all of us to enjoy. This one was circa 1975.

Armando says he was going for the "funny car look" with the narrow front tires and the fatties in the back. Also check out the zoomies exiting from the front of the rear tires. He also said he had the wing painted black and it didn't come off of the transport that way. He confirms the car had the white wing with BLUE Judge stripes.

Big time congrats on such a great chain of events about your new Judge.
Really cool that he still had an old photo of the car .

They look great with Blue stripes and i like a White spoiler better than Black.
WT7 is mainly just a cool oddity because it is so rarely actually documented -
as opposed to how heavily it was promoted in the 70 Judge ads.

Can only guess that maybe some - or many - of White 70 Judge new car orders assumed they would come standard like the cars in the promo ads.

It would have been a neat ice-breaker to discover a WT7 from the Arlington plant.
Find myself wondering more and more if Fred actually meant to type that None were built at Arlington - rather than All were built there.

1970 was the year of the unicorns .
WT7 Judges - 51 built / 3 documented
455HO Judges - 14 built / 1 documented
