Re: Judges
As both cars Colin is talking about are two of the three I have VIN/PHS on; neither of those should have any questions, whether you have been around them or not.
So I'm guessing the one 442 posted and I can't see is the Brown's old car. IMO neither of those even comes close to Gary's old one, number 4 on my list.

Re: Judges
Yeah your right Colin. I wonder if its the one Dan Mckinnon from virginia had. I think he sold his to that restoration shop in New York,then I heard Kevin had his hands on it. Whats that guys name? He's always in the Pontiac magazines.

Re: Judges
Don,
Are you thinking of Melvin Benzaquin in Sloatsburg NY? His shop is called Classic Restorations or something like that...he had a basket case 71 tropical lime Judge vert for sale for $40k at the same time I bought my black 70 4 speed one from him (when it was painted Granada Gold). He writes for some Pontiac mag...the guy is pretty crooked imho, his work was crap and the Judge I bought had to be re-restored even though he had just charged a guy over $100k to do it. After I sold it he found the new owner from Brooklyn, had him bring it in for service and next thing you know I saw a mint 273 carb for sale by Melvin on eBay and the new owner of my car came after me saying the convert had the wrong carb according to the shop working on it! That makes 2 273 carbs he got from 1 car. LOL Colin

Re: Judges
I am the previous owner of the Tropical Lime 71 Judge. Peter at Legendary did the restoration work for me and it turned out great. It is one of the best 71 Judges in the world. I spared no expense on the restoration. Despite what Colin thinks, I was able to pay for the services that Legendary provided to me and then later made a deal to sell the car to Peter. Legendary has successfully completed several cars for me over the years in a timely and professional manner and I look forward to my next project with them. The car looks amazing and I regret selling it every time that I look at the pictures. Paul
