    Welcome, Shred!  1933 was a great year (is your car a six or an eight?)!  Our club (the H-E-T, which sponsors this forum) is 60 years old and there is a ton of accumulated information, plus a lot of members who could be very helpful in answering your questions.  Where are you located?  Maybe a club member in your area has a '33 -- you never know.

    Not to be a nitpicker, but your car is actually called an "Essex Terraplane", since it was nominally made by Essex (Hudson's inexpensive car brand, introduced in 1919).  The Essex nameplate was dropped after 1933, though, and Terraplanes eventually became known as "Hudson Terraplanes" or "Terraplane Hudsons".

    I hope you'll consider joining the H-E-T -- here is their website, for more information:
