57 Hudson Hornet windsceen wanted

ESSX28-1

A friend here in New Zealand needs a front windscreen to complete his 57 H Hornet. Any pointers as to where one might be found appreciated. He's trying to get it completed in time for the NZ HET Club's Hudson Centennial celebration.



Contact me on HETdavid@websters.co.nz (drop the HET etc)

Thanks

Hey Paul are you sure? The Hollander shows that the 55-57 Hudson and 55-57 Nash windshields will interchange. Could they be in error? (Hollander 26th edition)

Back then my Dad would buy wrecked new Hudsons and Nash Ambassadors and sell them. He would interchange different parts. I am pretty sure the windshield was one of the parts interchangeable. He even interchanged the whole top on one of the cars. He also had a new tinted windshield stashed away in the garage rafter. 30 years later when he was cleaning out the garage to move we set the windshield out on the grass. Later on as he was backing up with an arm load of stuff he stepped on the windshield and it shattered into a million tiny square pieces. I'm sorry it happed but I was glad he did it and not me.
