Ziggysdad · #1 05-31-2010, 02:02 PM

I have gotten one opinion on this car already. Anyone know about this car? It is a Polar White with Red interior 1970 GTO Judge Ram Air IV.
I am a computer idiot so can someone post the link please.

Thanks

VIN 242370Z124865

If you're considering purchasing this car, hook up w/ others here who know these cars better but for starters, the way the description reads seems to indicate the engine is not original to the car?.
Also note that Googling the Vin results in numerous hits of the same vehicle for sale also past attempts on eBay and some past sales/no-sales are in French so it's possibile the car was in Canada?.
If by chance the car was delivered new in Canada, more docs would be available from GM Canada Vintage Services besides the PHS docs..

Good luck!.

I looked at this car in Januarary at the Mecum auction. Greg is a Pontiac guy and did a good restoration on this car. Rare car with nice options and in a killer color combo.
Most of the surviving RAIV cars don't have their original blocks and finding a correct WW block is near impossible.

If you're interested in the car, give Greg a call...

Greg is not very forthcoming with info,but wants a phone call. I just want some basic info before any phone calls are made. I have had Scott Tiemann look at a car for me before and I asked Greg. He said Scott knows the car,but that is all he would say. I will call Scott after the holiday weekend. I also recognize this is not the original engine,but I would like to know the casting number and its appearance and the casting date. I have a feeling that the more I learn, the less interested I will be.

White Judges totally don't do it for me, unless they have non-default stripe colors. A non-Judge in white/red is more interesting to me, especially that two-tone car that was on eBay a number of years ago.

The car just went through the Mecum spring auction. It was bid up to 85K…looked like a beautiful restoration. I agree most original RAIV blocks are long gone by now. Good Luck! RM

In todays market, 85K is a good price. Should have sold because that is what it is worth without an originl engine.

I saw the car down at Mecum. Restoration is very nice. After seeing some of the Ra3 Judges sell in the 60 to 70 range this car is a very good deal at 85k. I dont think you will find any other ra4 Judges sell in that range that are that nice unless they are green or brown.

i would have put the car on ebay first,before blowing all that cash hauling it to a BS auction like Mecum.

Prior to the auctions, I believe the car was on Ebay...
