    I really like that there are a lot of pictures. Too many people try to sell a car with one or two pictures and expect you to use your imagination for the rest.



    On the other hand, the description says it has a V6, so points off for that. I also think it's funny that the fourth thing listed in the description is that the ash tray and lighter have never been used. That's usually not far up on my list of requirments.



    Last thing - 58 Idaho plates? I wonder when they were last renewed (there's a sticker on the front plate but I can't read it). I also wonder how the car got from Idaho to Florida.

    1952 Hudson mostly complete with Idaho plates, green engine and what looks like one chrome plated horn? Anyway, Idaho was renewing their plates each year so it is a good bet that the last time it was licenced and driving was 1958. I exprect that it made it's way to the farm yard after that. One of our Idaho friends might be able to tell us what county it was regestered in (Idaho places the initials of the county on their plates.) I am expecting that it would be on the western side of Idaho. There is quite a bit of rust and the west side has a bit more rain and stuff....



    I had a 52 4-door just like this that I restored... It is not a bad build. Everything is available with the exception of the interior material... If it were still in Utah I would be bidding on this project....

    yea, i would hate to have to pay the ebay picture bill. at leat who ever wins will pretty much know what they are getting, with the excepton of underneath. if it's been sittin' since 58, the interior is in prettty good shape. must have been inside and away from the rats. i see a lot of stuff i could use there. too bad it's so far.
