This special survivor car wears 100% of its original paint and interior
components (sans carpet and package tray) and has a completely born-with drivetrain, including important parts like
its carburetor, distributor, intake, and exhaust manifolds. The Judge has managed just over 99,000 miles

The engine, transmission, and rear axle are born-with factory original to this car. Other important components,
like the 455 H.O. only carburetor, distributor, intake, and exhaust manifolds are also born-with and on the car.

a complete tune-up, including plugs, wires, cap, rotor, and points
Hoses and belts
All fluids, including oil, transmission fluid, rear gear oil, coolant, and brake fluid. The entire fuel system
was also flushed. Note that the original gas tank has the build sheet attached in a such a way that it cannot be
removed without being ruined. A decision was made to mount a used '71 gas tank on the car and keep the original gas
tank for documentation purposes.
A no expense spared Gardner exhaust kit has been installed, which nearly perfectly mimics the factory exhaust
for this car. The original exhaust had several holes and the original mufflers had been replaced with glasspacks. I
have the original splitter tips, as they were still on the car. New exhaust manifold gaskets have also been
installed.
The Judge has new brakes on all four tires, including a master cylinder, drums, shoes, wheel cylinders, and
seals. Original parts were saved and will be included with the sale.
The clutch has been adjusted, along with the shifter linkage. The carburetor has been adjusted, and timing set
per Rocky Rotella's recommendation for the 455 H.O.
Tires are a set of reproduction Firestone Wide Ovals in the correct G70-14 size, because the original Uniroyal
Tiger Paw tires are not reproduced. The original spare tire is with the car and in the trunk.

The Judge starts, runs, and drives like it's 1971.... The 3 speed transmission is an
absolute blast to drive. and 2nd gear will put a smile on your face every time. The car pulls hard. A compression
test was performed when the brakes were done last fall at Park Automotive (Camaro Supercar fame) and the 455 H.O.
is healthy. With that said, she will puff a bit of blue after long periods of storage. It clears up with a drive
and doesn't reappear with semi-regular drives.

The radio works. The rear de-fog works. The horn works. All lights work, along with the directionals and hazards.
The gauges work. The reverse lockout works like it should.

GM recalling 426,000 sedans over faulty transmission shift cable

Fri, 21 Sep 2012

General Motors is recalling some 426,240 sedans that may have a faulty transmission shift cable, according to a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration report this morning. The recall concerns a fault within four-speed automatic transmissions equipped on 2007-2010 Saturn Aura models, and 2008-2010 Chevrolet Malibu and Pontiac G6 models.
The report specifies that tabs on the transmission shift cable may fracture and separate. Such a fault could cause a discrepancy between the actual position of the transmission and the apparent position of the shift lever.
GM is currently working to notify owners of the vehicles in question, and dealers will check and replace shift cables free of charge. Scroll down to read the complete NHTSA report.

Question of the Day: Most degraded car name?

Fri, May 27 2016

When Ford came up with a not-so-sporty version of the Pinto and slapped Mustang badges on it in 1974, that was a low point for the Mustang name. When Chrysler applied the venerable Town & Country name on perfectly functional but unglamorous minivans, it saddened many of us. But perhaps the biggest demotion for a once-proud model came when, in 1988, General Motors imported a misery-enhancing Daewoo from Korea and called it the Pontiac LeMans. The original Pontiac LeMans was a great-looking midsize car with fairly advanced (for the time) suspension design and engine options including potent V8s and a screaming overhead-cam straight-six. The Daewoo-based Pontiac LeMans was a cramped, shoddy hooptie that served only to ruin the LeMans name forever, while stealing sales from the Suzuki-based Chevrolet Sprint. Sure, using the once-respected Monterey name on the Mercurized Ford Freestar was bad, but Mercury didn't have long to live at that point. I say the downward spiral of the LeMans name was the most agonizing in automotive history. What do you think? Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party.

eBay Find of the Day: 1967 Pontiac GTO Monkeemobile

Sun, 29 Apr 2012

Say what you will about The Monkees, but the guys in the band had great taste in automobiles. Take the Monkeemobile, for example. Built off a 1967 Pontiac GTO Convertible, the custom featured genuinely interesting bodywork and some wild engine bolt-ons. If you're a fan of 1960s pop and yearn to relive the genre's glory days, eBay Motors may have what you need. A recreation of the 1967 Monkeemobile has showed up for auction. This particular replica was built by Dakota County Customs using an four-speed GTO, just like the original.
Built for the band's 45th anniversary and the final Monkees tour last year, this Monkeemobile is faithful down to every last detail. Unfortunately, the trumpet exhaust poking out of the front fender wells and the massive gold-flake blower are for show only. Seems fitting.
If you like what you see, this machine is up for bid in Richfield, Minnesota with two days left on the auctions. So far, bidding as whipped up to $60,000 with the reserve not met. Head over to eBay Motors to have a look.
