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

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
