    You mean the slope-backs they made in Australia?  That's going to be difficult, if you live in the U.S., because "sloper" Hudsons were unique to Oz.

    Its possible that 2 x 36T slopers are available in Southern Qld. Don't know for sure, the situation would need to be investigated.
  • Thanks, I did not know that the slope back was only made for Australia, yep I live in the usa. I guess i have to go to plan "B"
  • I just found this in an article about Terraplanes

    For the benefit of any onlookers who have no idea what we're talking about, here is an Australian-built Hudson / Terraplane "sloper":



    Much cleaner design than that of the comparable Detroit-built brougham (2-door sedan), in my humble opinion....





  • OK what are these left hand drive cars

    Top one looks like maybe a '38 (112?) brougham, second one's a 1937 Terraplanebrougham, bottom one is a 36 4-dr. sedan (can't tell if it's a Hudson or a Terraplane).
