1970 PONTIAC GTO THE JUDGE FOUND IN A SHED!

While it was made for only three years and in a limited amount, it still is one of the most legendary cars ever made. That legendary car is the Pontiac GTO Judge. Under all that dust lies a very significant car. The Pontiac GTO Judge is a very powerful muscle car that could easily reach up to six figures when it comes to price. Values of the GTO Judge have been climbing up a lot and it gets very hard to find one for sale. This particular car is a 1970 Pontiac GTO Judge that was found in a shed in Georgia.

The owner didn’t say much about the car, he only said that the first picture is worth a thousand words. I am afraid that he is right. While many of you recognize The Judge by the amazing Orange color, what you probably didn’t know is that you could choose any of the GTO colors. The first owner chose the Verdoro Green color with a Black vinyl top. It is very hard to tell if this car has any rust because of that dust. However, I did notice that there are bubbles under the vinyl. The paint of the car appears to be in nice condition and the correct graphics are still present. The interior of the car clears up a lot of things. Although it needs a good clean-up, it is in very original and well-preserved condition. The owner didn’t tell me anything about the engine. I did some research and found out that only Ram Air III cars had A/C. This means that this car has a Ram Air III 400 V8 engine under the hood. Pontiac claimed that the Judge’s 400 V8 engine produced around 366 horsepower. They were a bit coy. People tested these engines and proved that the official numbers are around 400 horsepower. Regardless of the truth, the engine of this car is hooked up to a 4-speed manual transmission, and as I mentioned earlier, the result was breathtaking. The Judge ran from 0 to 60 in 5.3 seconds, which was very impressive back in 1970.

When 1970 came, GTO’s sales were failing a lot. Only 3700 people bought a Judge. This car is one of those 3700 and even with dust, it looks beautiful. This is truly an amazing find and all it needs is more information and a story about this wonderful car.
