Default Palladium Silver Judge On Ebay

Has anyone seen this car in person? I've heard it's had an amateur restoration. It's been on Ebay three times now and that's not a good sign.

I remember it selling for $42K last time, so I don't know why it would be listed again. I recall the last write up statng the block VIN was very light, partial stamping, so maybe that is the issue. It looks nice.

Thumbs up THE SILVER BULLET

GUYs, thats a truely nice car its a friend of mine, & if i had the money that car would be right next to my other judge.

I KNOW ALL ABOUT THE CAR, been in it, kissed it, LOVED IT.

THE ONLY REASON THE CAR IS FOR SALE is due to Personal Reasons.
It brakes my heart & my friends to sell the car.

Now i know there are no records like MOPAR but we searched & its 1 of 3 SILVER JUDGES known to be registerd in the US.

RAM AIR III WS M21, 3.90 posi (CMON its an A$$ kicker)

The guy selling has had 5 judges in his life this being the RAREST.

He is NOT as ANAL as us PONTIAC FREAKS wanting everything correct.
THE car is an awsome foundation for a true SUPER CAR, to him its just his favorite car, & just a car . He happens to know what they go for & knows the RARITY.
Car needs little EXTREMELY PRESENTABLE, Car gets tons of attention due to the color.
I helped him as hes helped me with our cars. ENGINE IS NEW REBUILT, INTERIOR IS BRANDNEW LOOKING ORIGINAL.
Missing Wood Wheel, & shifter handle cuase he didnt like the feel.
New Kick Panels.

WANT MORE INFO just ask me.
I & he would like to see this car go to the right hands. NO DREAMERS OR FLIPPERS. Car deserves a PONTIAC NUT who will LOVE & ADORE THE CAR.
CAR IS NOT PERFECT but its not 60K either.

Im gonna cry when the car goes, ( I WISH I COULD AFFORD)

Thumbs up MISS SILVER

I was actually NERVIOUS at this show, Miss Silver received more attention than me. THIS IS 1st & it was do to the color. Other than people thinking it was a fake it was flocked with people all day, all to mention theyve NEVER seen a silver one.

My nose dosnt line up nearly as nice as his as a i feel our cars are pretty equal. 42500 miles VS 51299 miles.

Palladium silver is a great color, but it's not one of three.

SWEET : Can you shed any light on some of the info posted on the auction. He has his engine unit number listed as being identical to the last digits of his VIN # - is that a mistake or confusion - or is it really the same ?

Some of his date codes are all over the place and he doesn't list a block date. Could you double check all his dates and stampings for him - or have him positively re-confirm ? His replies always seem to dodge the specific questions, or otherwise vague. I have a local friend who has become very curious/interested in the Car - but can't get clear cut answers to satisfy his questions. Some are left un-answered all together.

Thanks.

Thumbs up #S vs COLORS

WHY DONT WE (PONTIACS) HAVE THIS INFO???

Why can a fricken MOPAR be a 1 of 1 w/ somthing something Be Worth BIG MONEY & we are just guessing or assuming.

those were just Registerd at the time, THE number is extremely lower than any carousel red, liberty blue, verdoro, no?

It's a low production color, that's for sure. I've just seen more than that personally, and I don't go to that many shows.

I know of at least 2 documented Palladium Silver '69 Judge convertibles and there is a third one rumored to be out there. There are at least 4 hardtop Judges that are also that color that I am aware of.

It is a very low production color for sure but that is not a 1 of 3 car.

I am curious, where were these 3 cars registered that you mentioned?

There was one in Knoxville here in about '99 or 2000. Don't keep up with the owner though. It looked to be a poor restoration though. I think the guy's brother owned a muscle car restoration shop or auto body shop. I don't know who did the work. Very bad rear corner work on the car and bad gaps here and there. He was pretty cheap about attaining parts--my impression.

Sweetjudge: I thought I would chime in if you don't mind.

Guys, I'm the owner of the 1970 GTO in the pic's that Scott posted. Miss Silver is a REAL NICE car. If I had the money it would already be in my collection. Here are some other pics of the car:

Oh, SWEET - I let you guys stay ahead of me. LOL.

I had a great time at that car show with you guys.

Thumbs up the numbers

BARON, im not sure what your asking. The block matches the vin. The heads do seem to be off a bit. Intake appears to be early.

I PERSONNALLY have not crawled under the car to look at every number. He is a friend of mine & i respect that if he says it is what it is than i take his word for it.

There are a ton of NIT PICKERS, & tire kickers.

NO 36+ year old car is PERFECT, (ok maybe some) but ive seen JUNK JUDGES go for 20K

I CANT STRESS ENOUGH this is a clean sharp car, AS NAP & I mentioned if we had the dough the car would be in our garage.

MY views, I think the car is an original AM car it has a beautiful working AM FM in it now (can be changed)
I think the hideaways were added, but came on the car when he bought it.
Wood streering wheel is incorrect. (this can be changed)
Shifter arm to me looks incorect. (this can be changed)
I dont think there is a jack in the trunk i dont remeber (these are on ebay ALL the time)
Tires are 15" (this can be changed)
Dash has a cover, But very hard to tell.
Car starts right up, GROWLS & FLYS no smoke

TRULY A SWEET CAR (did i say sweet?)
