Very nice. Looks like Dana has some nice cars again this year at Indy. Looking forward to seeing what the 1970 Hemi Challenger 'vert goes for.

Re: 1971 Judge Convertible coming up at Mecum
 

That looks like the Kansas car. Always loved that one.

Re: 1971 Judge Convertible coming up at Mecum
 

sold for 77K around 5 years ago,i believe.

Re: 1971 Judge Convertible coming up at Mecum
 

Dave C used to own it. I've driven it. Great driving car.

Re: 1971 Judge Convertible coming up at Mecum
 

I heard Bill Wiemann was looking to sell his 71 Judge vert too. Must be the times. Can't wait to see what that Challenger hemi convertible brings; not sure the old Dodge is going to bring a million these days - never know I guess.

Charlie, how did your Hemi Challenger turn out?

Re: 1971 Judge Convertible coming up at Mecum

Here is how this Challenger looked when it came to Sweden in 1975. Someone had made a makeover on it before it shipped to Sweden. Probably didn't like the Purple.

Note that it has the AO5 - Protection group: vinyl insert body side moldings (V5) option on this picture. According to previous owners it came with it from the factory. And no Rallye Wheels.
Not on the car today.

I have the story of its time in Sweden in my book.

so now I see you even hooked up with Anders to steal American muscle. I bet there are more old American drag cars and muscle cars in Sveden then in the States. Geeze you guys got all the luck! ha ha!

Re: 1971 Judge Convertible coming up at Mecum
 

Wow Charlie, just wow.

Don't jump the wagon on this one, it went back to the States in the late 80s and one of the three stickshift '71 Judge 'verts at about the same time.

So we have sent a few ones back, but we still have many here.

If you count them per citizen we have many more than you [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/beers.gif[/img]

I know you do. &quot;where have all the Pro Stocks gone&quot; is a new song I am writing. ha!

Re: 1971 Judge Convertible coming up at Mecum
 

For those interested, I think the '70 Hemi Challenger 'vert hit $700K. No sale.

Re: 1971 Judge Convertible coming up at Mecum
 

Green hemi Challenger vert sold thru &quot;the bid goes on&quot;

Re: 1971 Judge Convertible coming up at Mecum
 

oh, cool. Thanks Charley. I was surprised that the bids on the In Violet 4-speed were lower than the green automatic.

Re: 1971 Judge Convertible coming up at Mecum
 

So what did you end up buying Charley? [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/Can-I-Have-It.gif[/img]

(For those of us that are living vicariously through you)

Re: 1971 Judge Convertible coming up at Mecum
 

I bought nothing...I did good.......

Re: 1971 Judge Convertible coming up at Mecum
 

I coulda swore I saw you as the winning bidder on one of those 70 RAIV T/As. Did you get outbid at the last moment?
