Mr GTODON's 69 Judge Survivor ..ALL RISE !

[Belair62]

Id like to share some pics of my survivor 69 judge that i recently aquired from the cousin of the original owner. He had the car for 20+ years and was not driving it anymore so he decided to sell it. The car was sold new at McDougal pontiac in coraopolis pa and has never left the state. The car is still in its day 2 configuration that the original owner did to it. Its completly unrestored with only the nose and rear wing being repainted due to fading. I have had many judges over the years from prodjects to frame off cars but there is nothing like the feel and looks of a survivor car.Those of you who have them know what im talking about. Their little marks and chips in the paint give the car character and the smell of the original interior cannot be beat!! The part numbers are stamped into the tailpipes of the car!! Whens the last time you saw that? I have to say that i do not like green cars,but honestly this is the nicest Looking green judges I have ever seen. and anyone of my friends who have seen it in person cannot believe their eyes with the condition of the original paint. The judge has just turned 63,000 miles but looks and drives like it has 20,000 on it. I hope you guys enjoy the pics.

[69sixpackbee]

nice car, I like the tach location myself, an old girlfriend of mine had a 68 GTO looked to be the same green as yours, it was an automatic but was still a fun ride. The slotted mags are way cool as well I always liked those.

[GM-26]

Very cool car! What brand tires are on the rear? The sidewalls look like "checkered flags".

[BBIGG BLOCK 396]

Very nice JUDGE!The original owner looks to have really taken good care of it.

[GTO_DON]

The color is Verdoro Green nd the tires are old Dayton H-70 14's on vintage Crager slots. Check out the lights under the dash!! Makes you feel like your in an opium den! Gotta love the 70's!!

[GM-26]

Don,
I knew you would have the answer! Who knows vintage tires better than you! http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beers.gif

[Mr70]

PS: didn't see you at Carlisle, maybe I missed your spot...

[Steve Shauger]

Don, great car. As you know there is something about a survivor, they seem to bring us back in time. That car looks like it should be cruisin down front street. Beautiful, simply beautiful.

[Belair62]

Um....I read about them ? yeah thats it.

[hvychev]

Don I really dig that car and LOVE the slots and tires! I also dig the yellow Accel box! http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif

Love everything about your 69 Judge Don, including the color. I had a chance to buy a 69 Judge back in 1986, but passed on it. If only I had that chance again, it would be sitting in my shop right now. Heck, I was only 19, and so into 69 Camaros, (still am), that it seemed no other make and model got my fancy as much. Isn't hindsight wonderful. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggthumpup.gif

[TimG]

Nothing wrong with Verdero green, we had a new '68 Benneville in that color and I loved it. That is a great car.

[JoeG]

Verdero Green was a popular color around my area back when---That color with the redlines is Flashback Time---Very http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif color/car.....
O.K. ONE MORE TIME....THIS IS YOUR BRAIN ON DRUGS,,,,,,!!! http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif

[HemiOrangeTA]

Beautiful car; gotta love those survivors!!

Thanks for the pictures and info; great website.

[70-SS/RS-L78]

VERY, VERY NICE Don....
I can relate to the feel and smell of the survivor cars

[mockingbird812]

The 1st muscle car I fell in love with was a 68 Verdoro Green White top 4spd Goat in the Youngstown, OH area. It was $500.00 and out of my price range at the time (circa 1976). I still have a soft spot in my heart for V. Green. Nice ride.
