1970 Judge Conv RAIII 4spd 4.33 45k miles
This is a good friends car, his dad bought it in 1978. He has the ad for the car along with every bit of research he did in purchasing it. (real estate attorney) He drove it 20k miles in the late 70's -early 80's, has the original tires in a warehouse.
Milt Robson tried to buy this car for years and reportedly offered a 69 T/A RAIV at one point in time. I painted it 10 -11 years ago... will show some during / after. First set are from 2010 local car show. If anyone knows anything about a running change on the rear spoilers from the wide posts to the narrow posts I'd like to hear from them. This car is a very early car & has a different configuration on the rear spoiler stands. I have the build sheet in my drawer as the owner could care less to come and get it. sold new at Ken Bender in St Louis.

Re: 1970 Judge Conv RAIII 4spd 4.33 45k miles
I've been friends with the owner for almost 30 years, we used to push this car out of the garage when we were in highschool and go street racing in the middle of the night then cut the car off and coast the last 150-200 feet into the garage.

Re: 1970 Judge Conv RAIII 4spd 4.33 45k miles
Wow, what a nice job on a great car. I found a little bit of info on the spoiler deal on Performance Years. You guy's sneaking home reminds me doing the same thing in my 69 Roadrunner about the same time frame, haha. Parents bedroom was right above the garage door and my license was suspended also. Man wish I could go back, well maybe not. I tried to make a link to Performance Years about the spoiler deal but I'm not very good at that yet.

Re: 1970 Judge Conv RAIII 4spd 4.33 45k miles
The car has 43k or so on it and the interior is completely original minus having Just dashes doing the dash. (I redyed the original carpet with RIT.) It was rarely driven in the rain and was always in dry storage,
For 6 years or so we were the worst thing it saw. 4.33 M21 RAIII 15 - 21 years old we all drove it like we stole it with the present owner screaming NAIL IT! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/  [/img] IT really deserves to have the chassis and engine compartment detailed correctly (he wouldn't spring for correct cables, plug wires, or doing anything to the chassis 10 years ago)

Re: 1970 Judge Conv RAIII 4spd 4.33 45k miles
Quite common on regular GTOs but a color not often seen for the Judge ragtops from my experience. The only other one I've seen was a RAIV Judge ragtop.
