My New Car!
This weekend I picked up phase one of my project. I have purchased
two 1929 Greater Hudson Coupes type R (one 'good' one for parts) with
the six cylinder engine. This will be a real challenge, even with the
parts car. The first car was converted to a 'tractor' but it has a
good engine, frame and drive train, rough rough fenders, but not much
else. The nickel dash is still there but it is damaged. All my wheels
are wood, no metal spokes. My parts car still has the Hudson
manufacturing label with serial number (which I forgot to write down).
The second car has a complete body w/ rumble seat and a toasted
engine. I should be able to make one nice car from my pieces (some
day).
I am building a 'frame dolly' to move the parts car around in my shop
so the disassembly can begin soon.
I plan to strip the parts car over winter and retrieve the 'good' car
after the spring thaw.
I have a few digital pictures. I can email them to any intersted
parties that promise not to laugh. HARPER@fhwelding.com
