bbowser Posted March 15, 2023 Posted March 15, 2023 Back story: My first after school job was as a library page, mostly reshelving books as they came back and memorizing the Dewey Decimal System for life. The "old lady librarian" I worked for (she was probably 40 ), her husband worked at Delco and thus got a 25% discount on any GM product. Her choice at the time was a brand new '69 Judge! This is a tribute to that car and the times she gave me a ride home, scaring this high school boy shirtless but boy was it cool. She later traded it on a '71 Vette coupe. Cool lady! Monogram kit went together very well, Tamiya TS-31 Bright Orange paint, decals were pretty old but laid down pretty well considering their age. Comments welcome, thanks for looking. 10
espo Posted March 15, 2023 Posted March 15, 2023 Beautiful looking paint finish. The decals look good as well. I didn't realize that Pontiac offered the Judge GTO in any other color for a couple of years.
happy grumpy Posted March 15, 2023 Posted March 15, 2023 Nice looking judge. Those old monogram kits still look good today. Great build and a nice backstory.
SpikeSchumacher Posted March 15, 2023 Posted March 15, 2023 Very nice! I remember in high school a friend of mine had a blue 69 GTO with the hood mounted tach as well. Fun cruising around in it ?
Joe Nunes Posted March 15, 2023 Posted March 15, 2023 Very nice build of one of my favorite cars from back in the days. Well done! ? Joe
Bills72sj Posted March 16, 2023 Posted March 16, 2023 Nice GTO. Are the wheels kit wheels? They look almost TOO nice.
