Description : 1969 Pontiac GTO Judge Tribute RAM AIR III. This driver quality GTO Judge tribute is a very presentable build that runs great. Features include the GTO Judge RAM AIR appearance package, Vintage Air, Body graphics, Body on restoration done 2017, Rebuilt 400 V8 engine. A new model called "The Judge" was introduced. The name came from a comedy routine, "Here Come de Judge", used repeatedly on the Rowan & Martin's Laugh-In TV show. The Judge routine, made popular by comedian Flip Wilson, was borrowed from the act of long-time burlesque entertainer Dewey "Pigmeat" Markham. Advertisements used slogans like "All rise for the Judge" and "The Judge can be bought". As originally conceived, the Judge was to be a low-cost GTO, stripped of features to make it competitive with the Plymouth Road Runner. The package was $332 more expensive than a standard GTO and included the Ram Air III engine, Rally II wheels without trim rings, Hurst shifter (with a unique T-shaped handle), wider tires, various decals, and a rear spoiler. Pontiac claimed that the spoiler had some functional effect at higher speeds, producing a small but measurable downforce, but it was of little value at legal speeds. The Judge was initially offered only in Carousel Red, but midway into the model year, other colors became available. This Tribute is the look you want for way cheaper than a real Judge.
Options on this 1969 Pontiac GTO Judge include AM/FM Radio, Spare Tire, Power Brakes, Power Steering, Seat Belts, Vinyl Interior, Rally Wheels, and Posi Traction.
