Not sure how you'd infer I'm putting the car down when I never solicited a negative opinion, especially considering I own a similar car. Someone stated he also liked the LS6 ragtop, and I merely stated I like the Judge best of all.

I must have misread the post. Sorry for the misunderstanding.

I think it's just preference, eh? Personally I like the Mopar B-bodies. We all like different cars though so I'm not criticizing. Coming up at Mecum, this is Dark Gold Metallic (which makes it pretty rare), and it's a Hemi! I'm not against Oldsmobiles, but Hemis were in a different league.

Tawny Gold (I think that's what Plymouth called it) isn't really rare. But the Hemi is!

Gary is bringing an amazing and super rare color '69 Judge this year, and we have discussed several other possibilities.

For those who don't know, Gary brought the black RAIV GTO Judge convertible that was in our Class of 1970 convertible circle, and several of the Olds 442's in the Class of 1970 were also out of his shop in Colorado.

Great stuff indeed!

I think a RAIV Judge is superior to both. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/headbang.gif[/img] </div></div>

Don't forget the Buick GS Stage1 'Verts.

If the Judge is so great... Then why do you go by name &quot;442W30&quot;? Just curious...

BTW - You do post as &quot;Joe Blow&quot; over on Classical Pontiac.... Right?

Yeah, that's me.

I own the Olds, hence my handle. I first fell in love with Pontiac, but I ended up with the Olds. Kinda automotively transgendered, if you will.
