Scuncio, thank you for posting a link to The Judge. I'm incredibly proud to be the caretaker of this car over the last 6-7 years, and I'm even prouder to have led its preservation and make it safe to drive as regularly as an owner chooses. I hope members here find my presentation honest and transparent; eBay's listing format allows us to host photos and videos in such a way makes a sight unseen purchase much more comfortable in today's world.

I completely understand the folks who want this car restored; I can wrap my head around that train of thought. But, the car has been in the hands of caretakers since the late '80's who, for a variety of reasons, have kept this car's story alive, will all her battle scars and wounds intact.

If a member here has interest in The Judge, I open to listening to offers on the car. I know the valuation process, especially without many comparables, can be incredibly difficult. A sale of a mostly disassembled '71 earlier this year for just under $30k helped establish a current floor a bit, but each car should be judged on its own merit.

Thanks again for sharing the link to the eBay listing.

Jeff
