Beast of a 49 Hudson brougham



This looks like someone took some time on it...



Here's what I see that I don't like...



right door is misaligned, grille/turn signals in front just dont look right, license plate recess in trunk, is that too far left?, dash isn't too cool, too much red under the hood...



Other than that, this is pretty neat, tubbed, someone put a lot of work in this to fit tires that big under the back end of this car.



Probably could have stuck with a 48-9 grille, they are clean and simple, and look good.

    Yep, it has had some time & effort done on it. That is a 59-60 Chevy dash. Looks like the seats are from a Lincoln. It is done tastefully, with only a little primping to get it right. I agree about the red under the hood. Needs chrome Valve covers and a few other tid-bits chromed, and maybe some black to offset it all. Overall, it looks like about what I had started to build with my '50 Pacemaker. I woulda' left the neat Pacemaker type taillites.The grill looks to be Buick. Its just not symetrical. I think that it could be made to look better simply by aligning everything. I'm curious to see what it finishes out at.
