Where did Hudson store the Jack and lug wrench in the ‘33 convertible and roadsters,

Not an issue now as I don’t have either. Haha.

    I see the internet says either in the rumble seat or under the drivers seat for 2 door convertible coupes with rumble seat.

    anyone on here n who can confirm and perhaps post a picture of theirs so I know what to look for in jacks and lug wrench?

    thank you.

    Well it wouldn't be under the front seat, as it is not movable,and is tight against the floor... I guess they were kept in a burlap bag in the rumble seat floor area, no provisions to fasten in place. The owners manual leaves much to be desired, no instructions about the jack, also no instructions on raising, securing or lowering the top. I assume because Briggs body co. only converted a few hundred coupes, so it wasn't deemed essential. And good luck changing or servicing the battery, for obvious reasons!

    Mine has a seat adjuster ( more show than go, as it only moves a couple of inches) the seat bottom sets in like my ‘35. It does lift out. As I am well down the list of owners, I am not sure if it is “borrowed” from another car.
