Offered for sale is a 1969 Pontiac GTO Judge. Let me first start off by saying this Judge is being auctioned off with a modest reserve.  This car is a perfect restoration candidate but still a project car and as such, is not drivable in its current condition.  I have taken approximately 80 photos showing the current condition of the car and can email them to any interested buyers.  That being said, the following is an accurate description of the car in its current condition.

 

Body:  The body is painted in its original color of  Carousel Red.  The Judge stripe is still in place and you can see a little bit of the original Blue center section here and there.  All body panels have some amount of rust and/or body filler.  This includes the hood, both fenders, both doors, both quarter panels, and trunk lid.  The rear wheel houses are rusty as well.  The floors look ok but further inspection would be needed to verify this.  The trunk key was not available so the condition of trunk floor is not available at this time. The roof appears OK as does the area around the front and rear glass.  The left door window is broken out but a replacement door with good glass is included.  The right door does not open but a replacement door comes with car with complete internals to fix problem.  The Data Plate and VIN Plate are intact.  Overall, the body will need a complete restoration.

 

Interior:    The interior is mostly original in its original Black color.  It has remote side mirror, an original style Sport Wood Steering Wheel and the Ram Air Pull is still in place.  The Dashboard is cracked at the top.  The Judge emblem is on the glove box door.  The seats are presentable and could use a good cleaning.  The headliner looks to be OK.  The door panels and carpet are in average condition but would probably be replaced as part of a restoration.  I was not able to check the lights or gauges as there was no power.  Overall I would say the interior is in average condition and would clean up fairly well for a driver condition car.   

 

Engine/Drivetrain:  The engine in the car is NOT the original motor.  It is a YC 400 block with date code L207.  It has 094 heads, edelbrock carb, and headers.  The radiator is a 4 core unit and appears to be original.  The engine was not tested so I do not know if it runs.  There is an aftermarket ignition and misc. wires scattered about.  The lower ram air pan is missing and the upper pan is rusted pretty bad but still in place.  The transmission is a 4 Speed manual and I do not know if it is the original transmission.  I was able to shift through the gears but can't verify the condition of the unit.  The rear end is a 10 bolt rear and I do not know if it is original to the car.  I did not notice a posi tag or check gear ratio. Overall the mechanicals will need a complete check and rebuild as necessary.

 

Misc:  All 4 wheels are the original JA code Rally 2 wheels.  Hood tach and rear spoiler look to be original pieces.

 

Overall, this is one of the great muscle cars of the 60s and 70s. This car would make a great restoration project especially since all the parts needed are available. While I don't have any history of the car, it does appear to be a real Judge but the PHS documents were destroyed.  However, a new set can be easily obtained.  I have taken several pictures and can email them to anyone who wants them - just ask.  Also please ask any questions and I will do my best to answer them quickly and honestly.  I would encourage any interested buyers to come see the car to avoid any confusion.  The car is being sold AS IS with no warranty or guarantee of originality or condition.  I reserve the right to end auction at any time.  Thanks for looking and happy bidding.
