You've mentioned some options that I never thought you could get on a GTO or Judge.I can probably bet that some of the option on the option list never got into a GTO.

I have only seen a few RAIV/automatic Judges with bench seat and column shift. Pretty rare. Lucky to have bought mine in 1979. Wont be buying any more as this project will break the bank to restore. Nice to see the Pontiacs recognized as "Supercars" now. Too bad I am priced out of affording any more. I personally wish these cars werent worth much so I could afford to buy more down the road. I will just have to be happy with 2 GTO's and my Harley. Jim

Its not good to buy a Judge right now unless you have money to blow on one.Even the GTO's are getting pricey theres people out there that cant even afford to buy a GTO let alone a Judge.The market is there if you want to sell.Its good that you bought your Judge when you did because you could make alot of money but if I were you I would'nt.Bench seat and column shift WOW thats never seen.

The oddity of the column shift is cool, there was a white 69 Judge here years ago for sale for a mere $500 and mostly intact. Had the bench seat column shift.

But let me tell you; as most of you already know, that column shifter sucks a BIG ONE in performance.

I agree, just because some options are rare just like colors does not mean they are desireable.

Yeah I agree with you just because some option is rare like say a pink Judge does'nt mean its desirable.You've got to admit that column shift is unique.

I ran a column shift in mine just for grins back in about 92, and it was a bad experience. Reminds me of the period in my life that I owned a Ford.

The bench seat is awesome, you can get your woman right up next to you. Assuming you would want that... haha

My GT-37 has bench; although I haven't driven it yet, I'm looking forward to it. The Hurst handle was a nightmare to find, as the original didn't come with the car.
