What do you guys think about the Stage getting the short end of the stick here ? Colors held it back a bit ? I'm told it was a #'s matching car. Only 10 of the 67 produced in the registry as well.

-----Since this is about Milts auction in general, does anyone know how much the 53 ElDorado with the custom touches brought??? I surprized Milt a bit when I saw him at Meadowbrook showing that car when I told him I drove it from Cape Cod to Carlisle the first year there ever was a Carlisle back in the 70s. It broke down twice on the way. Just minor issues though and it was one memorable ride.
-----Hope the car has a very good home as its very cool and has a wonderful history....Bill S

What makes the 69 Judge worth three times the 70 or 71? I would have thought the 71 in particular would have been right there with the 69, Ram Air IV or not.

The ZL-1 and the 62 lightweight Impala seem like bargains.

I agree, the 71 Judge in his collection is one of only three produced, only two of them exists today.

Jan, a lot more than three were made. I believe 13 of the 17 1971 Judge ragtops produced are still in existance. I think the 69 Judge has a far wider fan base than the love it or hate look of the 71s. Plus that particular 69 was an amazing car with a four speed, which commands a bigger price, especially in the RAIV and SD Pontiac world.
