He does know "just a little bit" about what he's trying to express/say.
It is an early Pattern Car / first batch of 2000 (*or first batch of 1000 - depending on data source) where all the first builds were same color with the same options.
Without going into full detail , that's the basic definition of the Early/First-Born Pattern Judges.

32 is his zone/district order number [00032] in the Invoice Order Number Box.
Just means it was the 32nd order that was built for that particular zone/district.
No big deal on the 32 .
Each zone/district would have had a #32
The 000part is the bigger denominator , it signifies it was a Pattern/Zone order car of the First Born Group.

It is a desirable pedigree for an Orange RamAir III 69 Judge.
They had real good performance option content as built.

Weird deal but if previous owner does have the Right Stuff mentioned and will sell the stuff fairly - its a great car to restore.

Look at the rear wheel wells. The bevel where the trim usually fits is gone. Either cut out at some point for big tires ... or more likely the whole wheel well was reconstructed from bondo.
For some reason I have a feeling the body and frame weren't born together. Body looks like it's had extensive rust repair but the frame looks solid. Rear window frame looks rusted out, rear quarters behind the wheels look all wrong to me.
Frame looks too good to have lived most of it's life in Indiana and Illinois.

I believe the pattern 32 car refers to the fact it's the 32nd out of the first 5000 Judges built. Those were basically built with the same options so they are referred to as
"pattern" cars.

Too bad no pics. If it's true, then I would like to see that car. I guess that I have an affinity for those cars because that's when i was in high school and a friend had one.

It must really be hacked up. I believe prices have been jacked up on those like (not as much as) the air cooled 911s.

Let's just hope the mechanicals weren't as poorly executed as the paint work:

To his credit he does mention the run, as well as provide that picture.

"The only takeaway is the 6yr old paint. It has a run in it on the pass side so I will let the new owner decide on the color."
