Hi All,

My dad has put a Hill Holder on ebay today. The tag on it says it is for a 1940 Hudson. We don't know if it works or not and it will probably need rebuilt also. If anyone needs/wants one it is ebay item # 160397875449.

Thanks for lookin,

Lisa G

    Here is a direct link: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=160397875449&ssPageName=ADME:B:EF:MOTORS:1123



    This is a rare Hudson Hill Hold, the tag states it fits a 1940 Hudson. It might work on other years as well.



    This units purpose is to keep the brakes engaged on a hill when the clutch pedal is depressed even if the brake pedal is released so that the vehicle is not supposed to roll backwards. There is a more in depth detail on this in the pre-stepdown Hudson manuals .This unit will probably need rebuilt. It appears to be complete, but we are not 100% certain.



    This item is sold AS-IS,there is no returns. Shipping charges to be determined at a later date. Payment expected within 5 days.

    I had a '49 Studebaker that had this feature. It really works slick and never had any trouble with it. Most of them were generics by 'No Roll'. It's a hydraulic unit, with a mechanical adjustment, so a good clean-up should make it good as new.



    I have a NOS one in the original box that I'll probably install on one of my Hudsons.
