Cool pics, that proto type Judge was supposed to have been destroyed after it's test duties were completed. Ertl or Performance Years Enterprises made a commemorative version of the 1/18 Judge with these stripes. Those stripes look great makes you wish they reproduced them for a full sized car.

Yea after looking at the pics again there must have been at least two Judges used for testing with these stripes, pretty obvious one too. One has exposed headlights and the other has hideaways. Pretty cool.

Yea the one pic clearly shows a 68 GTO post car as the HOT ROD test car with a 69 rear bumper and 68 quarters. Those rear markers were definetely 68's. I guess Pontiac was going to carry over the 68 rear markers for 69 and changed it up right before production. Very interesting indeed. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggthumpup.gif[/img]

The Hot Rod test car is a 69 Tempest body (2dr sedan) E.T. prototype. 68 GTO, Lemans, Tempest and 69 Lemans, Tempest all shared the same rear quarter panel side marker light. 69 GTO had its own design. I would guess the one without the Judge sticker on the fender would be the second Judge prototype based on the GTO body. Third is the actual production car.

Note in the ads posted today that the words "The Judge" do not appear on the car. When the pictures were taken the name must have not been decided on. The ad pictures were probably taken about 2-3 months before publication. Must have still been debate between "ET", "The Judge" and others at picture taking time. Noticed the other things mentioned.
