Did Pontiac ever release a color vs. total production breakdown for the '70 Judges. I have a '70 Atoll blue 4 spd Judge with a sandalwood cordova top. Does anyone know how common or rare this color combo is? Anyone know wich colors were the most popular? Thanks

I don't have a break down on only Judge colors, but Atoll Blue was the most popular color for the GTO/Judge in 1970. There were 4980 GTO/Judges paint that color in 1970, followed by Granada Gold (4664), Cardinal Red (3777) and Pepper Green (3661). The least popular color was Orbit Orange (618) and Mint Turquoise (774). [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif[/img]

Thanks Glenn [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif[/img] I have been asking everyone I meet that question with no luck.
How did you find that info? If it's not too much trouble do you think you could e-mail me the full color breakdown? I would really appreciate it [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif[/img]
Thanks again

Glen,
Is that color production info from Thomas DeMauro's new book? Where can I buy a copy?

ol' Pinion

Yes, it is DeMauro's new book. I ordered mine last September (pre-publication) from Amazon. Received it in November or December. Lots of good stuff that I've never seen before.

"Original Pontiac GTO The Restore's Guide 1964-1974"

1970 and 1971 are the only years that this information is available.

I think that Orbit Orange and Atoll Blue are probably the most popular colors for Judges in 1970.

Thanks for the e-mail Glenn [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif[/img]
It seems like all the '70 Judges around here are Cardinal red,Polar white,or Orbit orange. I have not seen another Atoll blue Judge anywhere around here, nor can I find any pictures of one on the internet. I have seen lots of Atoll blue GTOs, but not any Judges.

I think white and red are popular too. Pepper Green is another common one.

I am willing to bet Mint Turquoise is the rarest Judge color.

In the late 80's I owned a 70 Atoll Blue RAIII Judge. It was auto with blue interior, PS, disc brakes, 3.55 posi and wood wheel. Also had in-dash tach/gauges. I sold it to a guy in SC who completely restored it. I now own a 69 Limelight Green RAIII 4 speed Judge.

I tried to buy a '69 limelight ramair 3 4spd Judge before I found my '70. The guy would rather watch it rot than sell it. Do you have any pictures that you can e-mail? I really love that color. [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif[/img]

Verdero Green more popular than Liberty Blue? Or even Midnight Green?

I think Liberty Blue is second for '69.

Just my $.02
