Vehicle Description
This GTO Judge is one of only 357 produced. Very desirable, it comes equipped with the original born-with 455 high-output engine, 4-speed transmission and is an original-sheet-metal car. It was built on March 3, 1971, at the assembly plant, in Pontiac, MI. Upon completion, this car was shipped to Canada for delivery to the first registered owner. The Judge was completely disassembled and stripped to bare metal. The frame was removed and the entire drivetrain was rebuilt. The body of this vehicle was gone over from front to back, and the body fit is laser-straight and better than new. Once the body was prepared, it was given a fresh coat of the correct Cameo White (code 11), using the best modern DuPont base coat/clear coat paint. The blue interior was carefully restored as well. The frame was stripped, and all chassis components were replaced and/or refinished in the correct original factory finishes. The engine was sent out and completely rebuilt. The 455ci HO engine block was honed, and new pistons, rings and bearings installed. The crank was checked and lightly refinished. The HO cylinder heads were checked and given a valve job, along with new valves and valve springs. Everything was reassembled, and the entire engine assembly was given a coat of the correct Pontiac engine paint. No stone was left unturned, and the interior was completely redone with nothing but the best of correct materials. All instruments and gauges were checked for operation and repaired or replaced if necessary. All wire harnesses were replaced with new. The frame-off restoration was finished earlier this year by Restore A Muscle Car out of Lincoln, NE. This car comes with a complete set of Pontiac Historic Services (PHS) paperwork and Pontiac Division Window Sticker.
