Hi All,

Just came across this on Ebay. Not sure how rare these are, but it's sure not cheap!

    I paid less for my Terraplane convertible! That price is unbelievable!

    These gizmos were made for many marques, all one needs is a repro decal to make one "genuine Hudson". And I wouldn't be at all surprised if someone was making the decals.

    Over $600 for a glass jar, some tubes, a metal bracket and Hudson sticker? The dealers put out these accessories because they were cheap in the first place to make extra profit. If you pay that for a windshield washer not only are you foolish, but you're part of the problem in the old car hobby. Sorry but it's true. Might be different if it was the only one on planet earth and you're putting it in a museum where someone might even see it and care.

    Jon, I know for certain there is a guy making 'Hudson" decals for those Trico washers. I must have about 10 washer jars I 'd be happy (actually thrilled) to get about a third of what that guy is asking. P.T. Barnum at work again sadly.

    I know, I was thinking "couldn't you just get an old Mayo jar and some tubes?"

    Still looking for the Hudson logo washer bracket sticker like the ebay auction washer has. Anybody know a source? Osborne only has the Trico labeled stickers.
