Re: 1970 RAIV Judge Ragtops
Hi, I would assume that the extra cost was because it was a Judge color, but still a pontiac color.I've seen 69 GTO & Birds in carousel red. I'll have to ask the guy if it had dashes. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/flag.gif[/img]

Re: 1970 RAIV Judge Ragtops
On the Chevy's the -- paint codes usually means "non-standard" paint. It could be a non RPO color from a Pontiac, or Corvette, or it could mean stripe delete. I don't think you would call it special paint, just non-standard paint.

Re: 1970 RAIV Judge Ragtops
HI Jeff, I'm not real informed on chevy. I know a guy w/69 Camaro SS B.Block, it is painted black, & has 2 dashes. I was told it has the 2 dashes, as it was an early 69, & black was not offered then.
I assume my 70 RAIV Judge has 2 dashes as it was painted a non Judge or even A body color. Whatever the case I believe it is a unique car. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/flag.gif[/img] <font color="yellow"> </font> [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ [/img]

Are you sure about that year? Black was offered in 1969. On 1970 Camaros,which were Feb.70 built,they were not available in code 19 black.

Re: 1970 RAIV Judge Ragtops
HI, I'm not real good w/Camaros. But this is what I know, the 69 is a B.B. SS, it has 2 dashes on trim, maybe since it has no stripes? It has 2 dashes? [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/flag.gif[/img]

Re: 1970 RAIV Judge Ragtops
That's what makes the -- paint code so difficult to figure out. It could be a standard color like black, but maybe it had the stripes deleted. Or it could be an odd color like the Carolina Blue. Without good documentation, the only way to know for sure is to strip down the old paint to find the earliest color hoping the car was never stripped and repainted. Looking for the paint in door jambs or hidden under the hinges might be the only way to find the original color.

Re: 1970 RAIV Judge Ragtops
Hi Jeff, it is an orig. paint car w/low miles, the stripe delete may be it. I was told black was not offered 68 & early 69? but I know the pontiacs, not good w/chevy. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/flag.gif[/img]

Re: 1970 RAIV Judge Ragtops
I seriously doubt a stripe delete would entail dashes in the paint code.
Personally, my head hurts. While I have not been a poster boy for eloquence and clarity, I am unsure what is so difficult to understand. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/dunno.gif[/img] On a related note, check out this auction: 1970 GTO [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]
