Mustabin a '71. Only 17 Judge convertibles built (of which about 300 
survive) and the last year. When you get that low a production number in a 
top-of-the-line car, funny things happen to the value. About ten years ago 
the only recorded sale (triple black car AFAIR) was close on $100k.

Wonder what his insurance runs a year and how much it gets driven (have 
been a lot of threads on this but all in all cars make lousy investments). 
Am quite happy with my three toys (Monza convert is latest) particularly 
that I do not need to be worried about taking anywhere (though at 11 mpg of 
premium plus additives do tend to be selective about the Goat).
