I saw this Judge in person a few months ago. This will be a great auction to watch!

Yeah I think most of us can only watch, with the kind of money this car will bring. That is one s-w-e-e-t ride. He stated the car is listed locally, any idea how much?

Well, if people want to spend $4800 for a distributor, this could be a new eBay record. Anybody know what the highest selling car on eBay has been? It's wierd he stuck it on eBay instead of BJ. I would think that's where you would want to sell this one...we'll see.

Gary Cave's car, he has one hell of a collection!

I didn't know that was the only one accounted for - Company Car, and survivor to boot - this one is going to set a new high - Should have gone to BJ!

WOW, that is all I can say about that car. VERY nice paper work, YC engine code and no mention on the Billing Invoice of the special engine that I can see.

If it's not on the PHS, it most not exist. HAHA j/k

IMO this is more rare than the 71 Judge Converts.

Yup, this is the top of the heap!

Honestly, I think he cost himself some money - should have gone to Arizona!

I disagree, word will spread about this auction like wildfire and it should comand a top price. I placed a token bid, couldn't resist. My only question is how many 6 figures this will go for.

You think?

OK, what will it bring?

3, 4, 500k?

Well, I thought the Brown car would bring 350,000. So I was off there.

Haven't a couple of the nicest 69 TA's brought 800,000?

If pieced together non original Judges bring over 100,000, I think the right buyer might go 400,000 easy. But just a guess, and you don't know what Gary's reserve might be. He may expect double that. With Hemi Cuda's bringing millions, this car deserves some respect in comparison.

Which engine would you prefer to have in this car? A 455 or RAIV? The 455 is more rare, but the RAIV is a superior engine.

I have no doubt and I agree that this car is worth a ton of money! I would give my eye tooth for it; no I would have all my teeth pulled for it! But I really don't see it pulling over 125-150k on ebay. Of course that's not to say that its not really worth much, much more than that.

The original RA 455 of course. Why would anyone want anything else?! If you want a RA IV convertible, they're out there. One of the other TWO that were made is probably in the hands of someone that doesn't know it was originally a RA 455 Judge since PHS won't tell you.

I was talking to a friend of mine this morning and discovered that one of the other cars is actually known. It is in the hands of a regular guy and not one of the bigger collectors, he does know what it is and it is not for sale.

Myself, I would prefer a IV car as well, but still appreciate this one for what it is.

I bet it's sold and pulled off Ebay in a day or two.
