    it looks a lot like the 27 essex cowl i have, but it is a little different. dash has similar overall shape, but gages are different. someone will know. pretty darn neat whatever it is. you aren't going to put that flathead bent 8 in it are ya? :-& just kidding!

    It's either a 1924 or early series 1925 Hudson. The holes in the dash co-incide with the pics in the owner's manual for the 1925 owner's manual, and the straight bottom section of the windshield frame also confirm. Late 1925 had a curved section, following the curve of the scuttle.

    Thanks for the information on the cowl. I will be going over to see it again tomorrow. Would taking pictures from different angles help. Sharper pictures would help too.

    Any idea what it might be worth?

    Powered by the the Ford flathead. Naw. The 308 setting behind the flathead would look better.

    Just the cowl, it should be $100-$200, my guess if the guy is a regular car guy. $2500 if the guy is a car expert trained by Barrett-Jackson tv auction.
