    This car could be a sleeper- Auction is in the boonies, buyers will be used to paying $3,000 or less for a zillion tractors, Hudson is in comparatively better condition than most of the cars offered, and its a big enough sale that things will be moving fast- $4 or 5 grand may seem like huge money for that car to the crowd there.

    I used to buy and sell tractors- been to many farm oriented auctions, and cars usually don't sell well.
  • May be in boonies but its only 30 miles north of Edmonton and we are in heart of oil country and people have the money to spend. I went to some of these boonie auction from here in Edmonton thinking I was going to get deals. Only problem is half the classic car guys from here were there too. So price run up quick. Saw some crazy prices and on gas station signs and stuff. Have yet to find bargains around here at auctions. I know they happen guys have told me I just haven't seen them yet.

    I saw this car on an old car tour about 6 yrs ago and spoke with the older couple driving it. As I remember it was pretty decent. Go for it Sean. Bob

    Sean-

    Were you planning on attending this auction and did you have your eye on the '54?
  • Oh hell no, I have two 54's already and my other cars and truck and bikes. I need another car like I need another hole in my head. [-X
