This is a cool shot. Craig pre-assembled the entire drivetrain including the rear bumper! See the Hurst T-handle shifter? This baby is almost ready for a test drive. What a great photo. You can see all the detail work that went into this restoration. He's got components painted the proper shades. There are tags where the factory would have put them. He's also got colored paint dabs as the factory might have made.

Todd Crocker owns this near unrestored Carousel Red 1969 Judge hardtop. Todd explains, "This is my factory original 1969 GTO Judge. The car has been in my family since new. It was bought at Addison Pontiac Buick (dealer plaque is still on the trunk lid) in Toronto ,Ontario Canada. This car was one of the first 40 Judges made and has no glove box 'Judge' emblem and has the very rare first style Ram Air cable adjuster on the bottom of the hood, this part was changed to the Allen key block type after the first three weeks of production. The dealership had the car on display at the Canadian National Exhibition when the car was released in 1969 for advertisement so my grandfather had to wait a month before he brought the car home. The car is Carousel Red and has the RAIII engine, 3.55 Posi, 4-speed, power brakes, power steering and Rally gauges. The car has never had bodywork. The hood and top of the trunk is the only repaint on the car. The rest of the paint is original from 1969 and the Judge stripes are original. I replaced the 'The Judge' decals - the originals were faded too bad to read. The only rust on the car is the size of a silver dollar on each side of the front fenders. The interior is 100% original and never touched. The drivetrian is all original. I changed the plugs, water pump, had the radiator and brake master cylinder rebuilt, and had all the suspension rebuilt with new springs. This is one of the most original Judges, that is still driven that I have seen. It's too bad the paint is so faded. I don't know if I should restore the car or leave it. All I know is that I love to drive it. Thanks for the car grandpa."
