Paul Schuster had a set of Horns at the National, I've seen Mascots on eBay pretty regularly.

Come on anybody ? No wonder it takes years to restore a ride, makes you want to make a traditional hot rod.

Your not getting much response because your asking for some of the hardest to find and most rare pieces out there.

Thanks for the info, I know there are few and far between 33 cars and or parts but I would lay money that some people have hoards of stuff or doubles of stuff they don't want to part with. Just makes bringing back to life a old ride that much more difficult, I'm not in a big rush but I don't want to take 10 years to complete.

Been there, done that. It took me just over 18 months to find enough 1932 Essex hub caps to finish off my car. It does make one feel good to find those rare items and get them on the car.

Contact Cecil Nuxoll, 934 W. 16th, Spokane, WA 99203 (509) 838-1735 He makes horns for Hudsons of the 30's. He made mine for my 35T. He is old and his son-in-law may be doing the work now. They are custom made, 6V or 12V, etc. and costly. They are beautiful, correct and work

However, I don't believe Nuxoll furnishes the specific bracket one would need to mount the horns. Since that bracket would probably be peculiar to the Terraplane alone (and since 1933 is such an "off year" for virtually every make of car) you may find that the bracket's way harder to find than the horns themselves. However, someone in the Club may have undertaken to repro these items.

When looking for these 1933 parts, don't neglect putting an ad in the WTN, since it's read by many more Hudson people than this forum is. You might also try contacting Carl Weber, who buys and sells a lot of the older Hudson parts and might at least have some idea of what the parts look like (and what other kinds of cars might have similar ones that are easier to obtain).

From what I recall, the horn brackets could be easily made out of flat sheet metal. I can provide patterns if it is helpful.

I thoought the headlight stands were unique to external horn cars, in that they had a tapped hole for the bracket? Does anyone here have a '33 with the external horns that could post a close up pic? Thanks!

My Uncle had the chrome pieces for the sides of the hood cast by somebody, I do not know if he has more sets or if more could be made, he is on here (Tom Brintnall) you may want to check with him. I will ask him about it too. I think I have at least one fender light and possibly a shell but they are not complete.

faustmb

I have one spare taillight base, just the cast part. PM me

essexcoupe3131

here are your horns if add is correct
but the price look good though
i thought they had a different center in the trumpet but someone will correct me
thought it was linear rather than a mesh

They should have mesh I believe and the brackets are either wrong or not complete.

33kc1989

Also looking for front and rear bumpers.

Bump?

oldhudsons

the headlamp to fender mount is tapped to received 2 screws from the horn bracket on the '33 Terraplanes that came with exterior front horns which were only on the Deluxe models built after August of '33 - not sure about the '33 Hudsons.

Another guy looking for hard to find 33 Terraplane parts.....coupe rear fenders (assume different than sedan ??) and mascot. BUT, a reproduction Mascot is available repo out of cast stainless steel....Thanks Ken

[Deleted User]

Those fenders are different than sedan.

essexcoupe3131

maybe worth getting to the Harmon estate you never know what could be there
or someone may know if he had any early tin

[Deleted User]

Figured coupes were different.....prob will need to get real creative with mine. Bad damage and very rusty. Thanks

oldhudsons

Jim had several of the extremely rare radios that were std. equip. on the Deluxe '33 Ts; he sold me one, about the only thing I was ever able to pry out of him, LOL.

Unknown

Being that the rear fenders are almost impossible to find, does anyone have thoughts on the feasibility of having new ones made? There are plenty of good fabricators out there with the skills and machines.I'm thinking of people like Fay Butler.

essexcoupe3131

Are the rear guards wider like the earlier coupes or just a different shape
I know the 31s coupes are wider than the sedans
A radio now there's a thought for you John
if you can't go maybe someone would acquire for you, but you may have to dig deep
but you never know your luck
