judge 4spd convertible

I just talked to him, he got it in 1980. he got it from a vietnam vet, who was getting a divorce, and he had to paint early on as the soon to be exwife threw a <span style="font-style: italic">tricycle</span> on it, and scratched it. It's a 70. Original interior, original drivetrain never touched, 50k miles, never any rust. I doubt its a ram air iv, so did not ask.

He said I can drive it in the spring, looking forward to it, its in storage now.

I had no idea they were worth that much. Looking at prices on cars on line now, they seem to hover at $200K asking for restored. Wow.

What color is it? Big value difference there depending on the color choice.

it's red. it sounds like it has some tan-ish interior. I try not to ask too much until I see it in person.

If it's a real Judge ragtop, yes, worth 6 figures if it's all there. Like Steve said, many Judges lost their original drivetrain, and there are a thousand or more Judge clones out there, many were done back in the 1980's and now look original today.

If it's red with a &quot;tan-ish&quot; interior, most likely a 1970. They didn't make any Cardinal Red with tan guts 1971 Judge ragtops. If it's a 1969, it would be very unusual if it's Matador Red with a Gold interior.

Yeah, he said it's cardinal red. We are going to look at some mopars in the next month that I know about in hiding that he is interested in, I will chat with him more about the car during the car ride, not to buy it, but to better understand it cause its cool. I looked at pictures on the interweb and they look pretty cool.

Is a RAMairIII pretty quick? The car looks a wee bit heavy (it's a full frame car). I bet my (lighter?) 340 4spd cuda convert with new 391 gears (vs 3:23) would catch it and maybe keep up with it (for atleast a while). Hopefully next year we find out, all for fun.
