Re: Judges
I 've never heard of a Judge club either maybe some one can get one started.Its like the Ply. superbirds and Dodge daytonas theres a seperate club for those cars.Theres nothing wrong with the average GTO but the Judge is a seperate model it would be nice to have a club some were for Judges.

Re: Judges
technically, the Judge was an option package, not its own model.
I believe there was a Judge club around NM at some point but I bet it was a registry more than anything else.

Re: Judges
a hood tach was an option even on a Judge. I have seen many without a hood tach and a lot of the ones that have them are added.

Re: Judges
I have an article in Muscle Car Review from a few years back with a 70 GTO with an "Vacuum Operated Exhaust" option. There was a knob under the dash similar to the Ram Air knob that activated it. When pulled, it opened a baffle in the mufflers and allowed the exhaust to flow like straight pipes. GM cancelled the option after January of 1970 due to fear of the gov't and noise regulations. The article said there were about 100 GTO's built with it. It didn't say if any were Judges. A commercial that ran during the 1970 Superbowl did it in with the GM execs.

Re: Judges
How about the rear lamp indicator that's mounted on the package shelf? That's a rare one. I believe Quint Stires 1970 Polar white Judge has that rare documented option. That's the only Judge I have ever seen with that one.

Re: Judges
The VOE was not available on Judges or Ram Air. I know there is a factory promo pic showing both but it was not available in production. The VOE moved baffles around that would take the quiet stock exhaust and give it that GTO rumble and not fully open the exhaust. I looked at an NOS set up years ago , very
 option
