    Byers remorse should always carry a profit with it?

    This is the same car offered at the same price as previously mentioned in this thread: http://classiccar.com/index.php?option=com_jfusion&Itemid=62&jfile=showthread.php&t=22704&highlight=convertible

    The one which sold at the RM auction was blue.

    Where do they come up with "less than one hundred produced". From my records, around 350 '54 Hudson Converts were built. Am I wrong? Looks to be the same car that was raffled at the '89 Portland National. I only missed by a few thousand numbers. Arnie in Nevada

    Sorry, I wasn't there. All the advertising I saw for the RM Auction showed a blue car. I thought that would've been what they were selling.

    So, who's car is the one in the picture?
  • The convertible at the RM auction was a powder blue. I had a walk-thru over the phone with head auctioneer who described it perfectly along with the blue interior. The convertible that is up for sale now appears to have a red interior. The auction was live via streaming on my computer and watched it come through and pass-by. Number E697. It appeared to be blue unless I am color-blind. Is it possible there were two Convertibles for sale??
