1969 Pontiac GTO Judge! Walk Around And Ride Along!

- In Episode 27 of ‘Cars, Shops & Collections’ we visit Jeff the owner of a 1969 Pontiac GTO Judge!
Some may say the Pontiac GTO Judge is one of the greatest muscle cars of all time… I tend to agree! Jeff’s frame-up restoration has to be one of the top ’69 GTO’s in the country! From the classic Carousel Red paint to iconic Ram Air III engine this Judge is a show stopper!
Jeff gives us the interesting history of his GTO. From it’s time at Dengel Restorations in Montana to crossing the auction line at Barrett Jackson.

The Gto has always been 1 of my favorite cars
A true classic! Jeff has his dialed in!
All that went through my head before he opened the hood was, "Please don't let it be an LS, please don't let it be an LS..." Thank God! Love to see a Pontiac engine in a Pontiac. Absolutely BEAUTIFUL car!
Stunnning! So happy I was able to track it down!
,my sweet little sanctified grandmother once owned a 69 judge. I don't know who she is 😊anymore 😊
J.C.: The TV show was ‘Rowan & Martin’s Laugh-In’. Sammy Davis Jr. was the judge. ‘Here comes the judge’!!
That’s it!!!!
My gosh! A car named after "Laugh-In." I remember "Laugh-In!"
It was Rowan and Martin's Laff in TV show. It was a real popular show back then, and Sammy Davis Jr would make cameo appearance and do skits where he played a judge. Seems like yesterday when that show was on tv. Goldie Hawn and Judy Carne, Ruth Buzzy, Lilly Tomlin, Henry Gibson and many other played on that show.
Yes I had one when I was younger miss a lot!!!
OMG that is GORGEOUS! I love the color!
It's called carousel red.
In 68, I used to tell my dad I wanted a car like the Monkey mobile(GTO convertibile). In 1970 my parents came home with a "new" car, a 68 gto. In '75 my senior yr in hs I got the keys. I still have the car, stored(barely), though we've both been through alot. I kept it mostly in memory of my dad. I remember one time after school(JC) I saw a '68 firebird in front of me at the stop light. It was the same verdero green with black vinyl top. The kicker was that my licence plate was XXX X71, and it's plate was XXX X72(only last 2 numbers are real. I wanted to follow them home but I was late for work. Never saw them again. I often read stories of people wishing they still had their old cars. My wish is to one day get my goat back on the road, even if not fully restored. I've suffered through 2 very costly divorces(25+yrs), and even though I've been able to maintain custody of my kids, both times, I've paid through the nose and my cars have just sat in storage. I'm past that now and am getting back above water, but time is taking it's toll on me. I'm not bitter, I just don't want to park it in my front driveway to just pose.
Luckily I am old enough to remember when these came out, in fact I a old enough to remember the whole evolvement of the muscle car scene. I wasn't old enuff to drive but have been a car nut since riding my tricycle in the late 50s.
I grew up with cars like this when they were a common everyday street scene. My current car and daily driver is a 17' Super sport Camaro 6 speed manual.
Beautiful machine! 🤟😎🤟
I had a 69' Roadrunner, I would have kept it if I had somewhere to store it.
Oh man…that’s one sweet ride.
I don’t care if it’s not all original; love the aftermarket parts.
The car looks very together and awesome at the same time.
Glad that Jeff is using it and having fun with it…that’s what life is all about man.
Big respect for him…and Jeff, do NOT sell it!
Go GTO gRrrrr….cheers from NYC 🗽👊🏻
Yes! I love the fact that he actually driver is it around town! I keep seeing it!
That color so 70s 😎
The motor is amazing! Plus it has a motor temperature in the hood? Wow amazing.😊
tach
My 69 Judge had the vacuum headlights and white interior I sure miss it.
Man of culture. I like the Jordans
I know Roger Dengel. He is from my hometown. A great guy and yes, a perfectionist.
Incredible work!
Nice video! That's a sweet GTO! Watching from Tx
Thank you! And thanks for checking out the show! Go Cowboys!
Even an original 69-70 gto are really good highway cars, really smooth comfortable for old cars! But definitely got fix the bump steer problem with the control arms
Kick ass job on this video. Such a sweet muscle car. Keep up the great work. You gained a subscriber.
I appreciate it! We are having fun with the channel and it's neat to see it grow! Big things still to come!
The show was "Rowen and Martin's Laugh-in" which was where Goldie Hahn became a star. Paul Revere and the raiders also did a song about it, and they did a GTO commercial as well...
Thanks for the info!
💯 AWSOME. A friend of mine has one here in Davie County N.C., not two miles from my house. BEAUTIFUL car!!! 💯✌️👍❤️
A head turner for sure!
I was told judges aren't for sale
JC-Love your channel! Really quality videos and your personality is just super nice! I'm a classic Porsche gal but recently purchased a 1973 DeTomaso Pantera which is how I found your channel. Dont know much about GTOs but I love this car!!! Awesome build! Id love to be in line for this car if owner ever sells!😊
Congrats on the Pantera! I'm sure you will have fun with it! Thank you for watching and I'll let him know we have a buyer if he ever decides to sell!
I had 66 coverable wish I had it now!!
my grandpa built one. it was green then they painted it this way.
Laughin was the Tv show Sammy Davis Jr was the original Judge. Lol
GTO=Grand Tempest Option was the original designation in the Pontiac offices.
Is there anyway to get info on those seats???
Its the same color as the 69 Camaro but Chevy gave it a different name.
Laugh In
ROCK
Carousel Red is the same color as Chevrolet Hugger Orange used on Camaros at the time. The name is just Pontiac marketing. 🤟😎🤟
Thanks for the knowledge! I appreciate you watching!
But it was John DeLorean AND Jim Wanger! Jim is the Godfather of the GTO!!
Any way to get pictures of seats? I'd like to have some similar ones custom made. Thanks!
I'll ask!
Hi nice ride, what size rims front and back ? Thanks
Let me find out!
@CarsShopsAndCollections
Ok. Perfect, I have a GTO and want to put some of those American racing wheels on it. Staggered fit just need to know the sizes. Thanks.
"the only thing it doesn't have is air" ...AC was not offered on cars with the Ram Air III .
The Judge For 1970 Orbit Orange ,Was A Feature Car In 2 Adam 12 Episode, Same Car In 2lane Black Top ,Same Car in The Opening of Beretta With Robert Blake ,Also A Feature Car In Kojak ,And The Same Car In Dazed and Confused . The Advertisement for the Car Was Long Standing.
Very nice car.
For that kind of money, that sucker needs air.
Just drop the windows down.... you want people to see you driving it! Lol. Thanks for watching!
Please oh please lose the music.
Thanks for the feed back! We started removing the music in the last few episodes!
@@CarsShopsAndCollections, thank you.
In 70 orbit orange was the gimmick color equivalent to the 69 carousel red..Cardinal red was actually red, orbit orange was a yellow, huge problem with this video, the music over the sound of the car is definitely blasphemous!!
Good info! Thank you!
Too bad it’s not original
Hard to find an all original... But Jeff has done a great job with his!
I fully disagree! There is ZERO reasons not to make a car your own with personal touches as long as you keep the original parts!
