I have one, but this one starts at $19.99. I wish the stock market would go up as fast as this book will.

    Written by a former hudson employee, it is not so much a restoration bible, but a reference bible if not THE reference bible. the book goes through the history from about 1900 to 1957 of the Hudson Company. It gives a year by year account with pictures of many available models and body styles. It is arguably the most complete published account when looking at the life of the company. the pictures are quite usefull for identification.



    For technical information, obtaining the Body, Mechanical Procedure and Parts book pertinant to your car's year. In the case of the stepdown era, this info is available in 48-54 versions of the parts book and body manual. Mechanical procedures have holes as they may defer to an earlier year's manual for example the 1950 manual just refers to the 48 manual for engine procedures.
