there is a 1939 Hudson 112 Coupe that was restoroded in Alberta.

Considering the rarity of these Hudson's, it is unfortunate to see it get rodded but thankfully it wasn't chopped.

    yes, too bad they don't stick to Fords & Chevys when they want to ruin an old rare car.

    I have to agree ; it's a nice looking car but you do have to question why it was rodded? I know that there are times when a car is that far gone that throwing modern running gear in is a way to go but this looks okay.

    I have no problem with a car being rodded if it keeps it on the road but do prefer to see them in their natural state

    I like the resto-rod look. A new set of original wheels with SBR wide whites and I would drive it.

    This car has been on and off KiJiJi for about 2 years. It started at $50,000 if you can believe it, and has been going down in price since then. A few of my spare parts are on that car. I can't remember if he had the original drivetrain, but a resto-mod for me is a good compromise. One day I hope to do a similar job with mine, only a bit more care with the dash/interior. It is located in British Columbia, but being advertised in Alberta as well.
