Pontiac started their ad campaign for their muscle car announcement the GTO Judge in December of ’68 but were available at dealers in January 1969 .

There was a guy in my hometown who restored one of these. It looked great, mostly because he (and his uncle) did their research and took their time. The paint job and the interior were done beautifully and as faithful to the original as possible; the original engine was rebuilt.

Those Hurst shifters were *everywhere*.
