I all, Iam getting a small mural put on the rumble seat lid and I have picked the lady to go on it (off a bomber plane) and she is nealing on 1 leg which she is wearing a tastefull negligee, I was going have her neal on a old fashon wire display stand holding 1 quart bottles of oil, I would like those quarts to be hudsonite transmission oil
I suspect that they didnt come in quart bottles but its the thought that counts
My question is was this produced by Hudson or a oil company for them ie Texaco or someone?
Thanks for your help

Like other automobile manufacturers, I would assume that Hudson outsourced for the oil. It was available in anything from a case of 48 small cans to 55 gallon drums.0

Mike,
Hudsonite is actually 'clutch fluid'. Hudson cars/trucks used wet clutches that ran in a bath of Hudsonite. This was a regularly changed fluid, much like engine oil.0 -

What's a matter with you guy's? Hudsonite? What about the Naked Lady!
Here is another question for you, Where did the name 'Rumble seat' come from? Was this just a common name, or was this the proper term?0 -
that would be nice
thanks James0 -
Iam not sure I have heard them called dickey seats and rumble seats
it would be nice to know
It would make a good thread
and some stories to go with it LOL0 -
We want to make sure that the young lady's negligee is tasteful. Hudson people are nothing if not tasteful. This goes for dainty, lacy underthings in the boudoir as well as for vehicles in the garage. We make sure to keep things wholesome and, above all, tasteful!0

opps I forgot to say that the negligee is painted in flip flop, and all done in the best possible taste as Kenny Everrit used to say LOL0

Here is the origin of the expression "rumble seat" . Called a "dickey" in Britain.
“The rumble seat is a seat that folds out at the rear of a vehicle,
holding one or two passengers (typically). One is exposed to the
elements.
The rumble seat's origin seems to have come from horsed-drawn
carriages, where the servants did not ride inside the carriage but on
a seat that folded down in the rear. The English term rumble seems to
have come from the noise associated with riding in the rear, albeit,
horse-drawn carriages were not that much quieter on the inside, though
padding and thick glass or heavy curtains did reduce road noise a
little bit.
The first automobile with a rumble seat was a Packard built in 1908
that was just a two-seater, with the rumble seat in the rear. Because
it was only a two-seater, it was nicknamed the "Honeymoon Car".

Maybe we should have an HET Censor Board that would require all racy art work to be submitted to the D.O.G committee (Dirty Old Guy's) before we issue the official HET seal of approval. I really don't have time for this, but reluctanty offer my services.0
