  • Currently - three cars and three trucks: a '37 Terraplane, a '66 Dodge I've owned for nearly 27 years, a '79 Chrysler New Yorker, a '71 Dodge D-100 and '67 Dodge D-100 CSS pickups, plus a '66 Ford F-250 pickup. All running/driving/tagged/titled.



    Looking for any year Gremiln or Hornet, plus a '75-'78 Chrysler New Yorker to add to the collection.
  • I have three:



    The '51 Super Six (Not tagged)

    A '61 Willys Pickup (tagged and on the road, but not restored) and

    an '85 AMC Eagle Wagon (nice original tagged and on the road).

    The (1) I currently have is tagged and roadworthy. My next project will be a Hudson daily driver. I'm actively trying to locate a good candidate.

    '51 Pacemaker (tagged)

    '51 Hornet sedan (fresh paint last weekend- hopefully ready for Auburn)

    '32 Essex 2Dr. coach (last inspected in 1952)

    '78 AMC Concord

    '81 AMC Concord (daily driver)
  • Well, I am not sure if I own the 52 Pacemaker..... I think it actually owns me.
  • 2 not counting the parts car, 54 Hornet special sedan Drivable but in the garage for the winter, and a 54 Hornet special coupe that is licensed but not drivable at the moment. I agree with kktreb I think they own us instead!

    I had an '84 Eagle Wagon Sport. It had the 258 W/ a 5 speed. I loved that car, but young and stupid as I was, abused it and sold it. I wish I had that one back!

    A 1931 Model A Ford Tudor Sedan I bought in 1956 while in HS. Still on the road and even more fun than before

    A 1949 super Six four door We drive around the state and goes to most Wednesday night cruises. 12 volts, A/C , criuse control and a CD player.

  • I forgot to answer the poll question, after getting excited about the 52 wasp coupe...



    as far as my "collection" here's what I have been able to amass...



    1950 Hudson Commodore 6 4 door

    1964 Buick Riviera (need some work, but all there)



    hopefully I can add a stepdown coupe to this list, someday, prefer a short wheelbase coupe, but at this point, my desperation would even consider a 2 door Jet, just to have a 2 door hudson, no hollywoods, or broughams though. But I would consider a convertible.... hehehe....
  • 52 Hornet sedan (a "beater" with shiny paint, Chrysler eng, trans, rearend, front disc brakes) I wanted to make this the "tow car" for the car below but am re-thinking this since my issues with the rusted out frame rail.....



    53 Triumph Mayflower 2dr. sedan - 2 liter ford eng w/ big nasty cam & Hilborn fuel injection, headers, 4 spd trans, narrowed Olds rearend and still buckets full of money away from giving me any JOY!



    59 El Camino- LT1 350, 4 spd

    At three, and holding:

    '48 Hudson coupe, "Old skool" custom (that sectioned red and white one that was on the board last spring)

    '66 Olds Cutlass convertible

    '28 Ford Model A coupe- need to get the engine back in so I can sell and buy another Hudson.

    Sold a project '59 Corvette a couple years ago- some guy wanted it more than me, and (I can't help it) I just like Hudsons better than 'Vettes!

    1950 Pacemaker sedan - Needs engine work

    1947 Commodore 8 Sedan undergoing frame-off restoration - awaiting decent weather and some cash

    1947 Chevy Fleetmaster sedan (for dad) - undergoing frame-off restoration and waiting for good weather and taking away time money and attention from my Hudsons.

    Woe is I, they do not drive. Don't think I'd want to own more old cars unless I had a staff mechanic like Jay Leno hehe.

    This car thing is a disease. Get rid of cars and they will find you. Some shmoe you know will invariably say "OH He's into old cars! I'll give the ones I don't want to him!" lol
  • My '53 Hornet sedan is the only car I own.

    Thinking about getting a new motorcycle some time next year, though.

    Its hard to own just one Hudson.



    1949 Super 6 Sedan A nice driver

    1949 Super 6 Brougham My show car.

    1954 Hornet Sedan Runs fine, just won't stop.

    1966 Dodge A100 Sportman Van. It's going to be my street rod.

    Purchased by my Dad in 1966



    I just sold my 1930 Chevrolet Sedan. Nice older restoration but not a Hudson.
  • One 1930 Ford Model A Phaeton. Great car for fair weather and cruising through town. :) I really like the look of Hudsons though...the stepdown 2 doors mostly. Maybe some day...:D
  • i have a 34 hudson 8 and a 48 cadillac convertible. bob cameron
