"It's just like driving a fifty-two year old car." I like that line and will probably use it some time. I've got a similar situation, except I had a '70 Le Mans when I was in High School. I always wanted the GTO and when I finally grew up and made good money I was able to buy one like you did, palladium silver, like yours, numbers matching, but a convertible with the Judge cosmetics. I can't fill it up with gas without someone coming over to me to talk about it. I told my girlfriend I could pull up in a corvette and no one would want to talk to me about it. I struggled with whether or not to keep it all original. It looks so much better with the 15" wheels that really fill up that tire well with rubber. After the wheels I added sport mirrors and a Hurst shifter. That's about it, of course I still have the original items. Happy motoring.

Thanks for the kind words. Would love to see a picture of your GTO. I agree about your comment on the corvette - those seem to be everywhere but not GTO's. Lot's of thumbs up from other drivers when I'm out driving. I'm gonna keep this one as original as possible, have a set of 15" Rally II's that will go on in place of the 14"'s and I did buy a 2.5" Pypes exhaust with Ram Air Headers for it - still need to put those two things on it but that will probably be it for this GTO. Thanks again for the comment - much appreciated. Ray

I totally understand, wish I had made sure our high school car was taken better care of. It was a 70 and just didn't have the $$ to fix it then. It was rough but man it could've been great.

Aurora Illinois, isn't that where Waynes's World took place? I don't suppose there's a Stan Makita's Donuts in existence. Na, but sir, you have an awesome Goat and the silver paint and original Pontiac wheels look fantastic. 👍

Aurora is where Wayne's World took place, I didn't see a Stan Makita's but that doesn't mean it isn't there. Thanks for the kind comments on the Goat. Those wheels are original the previous owner just painted them all black - I think I'm gonna change them back to original silver/black colors. Ray

NICE CAR just a note the fender edges in engine bay should be silver not black but no big deal .I own a 70 Judge it's Pepper Green i live up by T/C in Michigan ,1970 is the best year I think.

@bigdaddy9864 - thanks for the comment. Engine bay was painted by previous owner - probably in 85' when the car was repainted as well. I agree 70' is the best year but I'd own any of them. :-) Congrats on the Judge, would love to have one. Ray

Southern Minnesota, I haven't looked the car over very good, but I think floor pan, quarters are bad, it has no engine or trans. I think he wants around $14,000 for it, but it is a real deal Judge. It was sanded down years ago by someone else, so no silver paint is on the car. He offered me the car, but its too big of a project for me. I just hope someone restores it cause it deserves it.@@twodrunkbrothersgarage4911
