Been awhile since I shown any movement on my Hudson. Been up and down the road quite a few times and and it's fun. First time I driven under it's power since 04.
I've tried 4 times already, so hope Ido it right this time.

Lookin' really good, Kim! It is a blast, isn't it?

Yes Russell it is a blast. I've installed an overdrive trans from a parts car I got 6 years ago and amazed how well it works. It's a thrill to pull away in second gear and shift into third at about 15 mph and listen the 8 pull. Then drop into overdrive at about 25 and cruise. Car had standard and no overdrive when I got it, I hope the 4:10 gear will give me good top speed. Still trying to get the bugs outa the engine, still noisey at the top. It's quiet when cold, in a pull very little noise,let off the gas and it's rattely. Block was decked and Mr Tallent said maybe a piston bumping the head.
I start it up every morning before I go to work, second turn and it's running.
Almost makes me have to change my drawers from the exhileration.
Thanks for the encouragement,
Kim
