Anyone have a really good digital picture of a 70 Orbit Orange Judge? Prefer to be a large one so I can give it a good looking-over. Email to [email protected]

Thanks alot for the pics!! I started a list of everything needed to restore the car last night, now I need to go shopping. I think everything I need is reproduced except new fenders. Most of it will be new interior stuff (looks like a family of mice made it there home for a while). I have the sandlewood interior, anyone know where/how to get the headrests restored, it may be possible to paint/dye them, but I would rather use new material that will match the new seatcovers I get. On that note, where is the best place to get seat covers, carpet....etc??

Nice cars but they shouldn't have chrome trim on the front valance.

Actually, with or without the trim would be correct.

Mike C.., do you have any proof to what you're saying? Where was the car assembled, the one with the chrome pieces up front?

HPP Feb. 2002 (p.37). An article on a 70 RA IV Judge. It's in a side bar of 70 Judge facts. Some got them, some didn't. Just as some had the front spoiler some did not.
I know that everything you read is not necessarily fact, but these guys are pretty knowledgeable.
My 70 is a non Judge. It has no stainless on the valance, with no sign of there ever being any.

When they have "DECOR GROUP"on the build sheet. Those are the ones with the moulding on the front.

DECOR GROUP consists of code #471 Deluxe Wheel Covers and #694 Wheel opening Moldings.
The front valance crome is not mentioned anywhere as an option, so if they´re not there they are missing.
Of course someone at the line could have missed to mount them

I just went out and looked, and mine has the chrome. I spent part of the day yesterday, tearing the Judge apart, looks like the floor and trunk are very solid. Next I am pulling the dash to send to Just dashes. May send them my headrests too.

If you look in the 70 GM assembly manual it's clearly indicated mouldings,retainers and screws "all except wt1" the drawing # is 9799797. Other proof is my Judge that left the Oshawa factory with wheel opening mouldings and no valance chrome this car is untouched low mileage original. Maybe cars with chrome are assembly line mistakes?

I've got a late September Judge built in Arlington that came with the valence trim but no spoiler. It's unmolested in all respects.

Gordon,
Did your Judge come with a front spoiler? I'm restoring my OO Oshawa Judge now & may bug you from time to time for info if you don't mind. Any other Canadian built quirks that you can think of will help.
Thanks,
Steve

I have a Oshawa built 70 Judge built in oct 69 it has no chrome or front spoiler it is original paint car and has been off the road since the late 70s so I don't think it left the factory with the spoiler
