How did you get the little vent window cranks? Tell me the specfics if possible. I really like the way you did the door panels. You or some one else wouldn't have the patterns would you I need them.

thanks Mike Cosmo

This is an old post! I must have missed it from last year - nice looking work! I'd like to hear more about how you stuffed the engine in there and other mods/work you have done.

I really do like the styling of the Hudson Trucks and hope to eventually get one someday!

Did you use the original suspension in the front? Or did you clip the front somehow. I would be interested to see how this truck will handle. I am considering using the front end off of an older Dakota pickup that I have in my car to handle the weight of a V8 and give better handling. What did you use?

hudson dave back to you. i have done 4 of them now i would say don't cut it up .i can tell you how to put p/s and power disc brakes inexpensively and use all the o e front end .a small block chevy weights less then the six cyl hudson. so don't worry about that . hudson dave

Isn't it amazing how an older post can generate so much new interest?

Nice work, Mr. Sollon.
