1 of 108 69 Convertible Judges
 

Do you remember the Knafel car that stirred up a hornet's nest many years ago; well the same owner has one of these convertibles and it is a very strange Judge with low options. It is also up on Ebay and I'll list that too.

Gary Daniels is the owner and his number is 918-231-1767 Tulsa Oklahoma.

VIN: 242679B166725

PHS:

This car has been in Gary's storage building for close to two decades; he finally came to his senses and decided to part with it so someone will put it back where it should be.

Reserve is $49,500.00 and was a just a few grand short of that on the first day.

Hope you enjoy seeing this and watching the auction.

----Steve,,,Judges (the car kind, in this case) often confuse me. Why would an auto, RAIII, low option 69 Judge convert in this condition command this kind of coin???......Bill S

Only 108 were made per information shared by Fred Simmons of GM; if memeory serves me correct on Fred doing that research. I think only ballpark of two dozen are known to exist. Not as elusive as the 17 1971's; but still rare as they come for Pontiacs.

a nicely DONE 4 speed car sold at Meecum a couple weeks ago for 135K,maybe if someone could do all his own body and paint he might be able to come out alive.tom

Yes, saw that car.

The add list "455/366 Ram Air III engine" and "Documentation includes the window sticker" but does not include such paperwork in the listing; would have been much nicer to see the PHS on this car just for authenticity.

Too bad the days of a quick opportunity have long left this hobby, many years ago at that. Gary said there was a nice unrestored black ragtop on Ebay that went for a little more than the Mecum car in the last year; I prefer the black Judge anyday.

Steve,I hope the car goes for great money for the seller.Just to me after doing a car last year this is a huge project unless a rebody.A good car when done but even a convert Judge the combination of the auto and column shift although making it even more rare IMO is not as desirable.Tom

Tom, I sold a complete (faded) orange '69 Judge vert in '88 for $3750. I remember the exact amount because it was listed in the PennySaver in Hermosa Beach for $5K, and I was lowering the price every couple weeks until it sold. It was down to $2500 when a guy, who must have been looking at a previous edition, called and asked if the "69 Judge convertible was still available for $3750. Have you seen an orange one around? Went local.

Not as bad as NJSteve's HemiCuda 'vert sale, but...
