Hello,



Thank you so much for all the Hudson information. The painting and trim numbers are original so that is great. We checked out all information on the internet but we didn't found another Hudson 1955 in Europe. Only some 1956 and 1954 Hudsons.

We bought this car on a internet auction in Belgium from a company that was bankrupt. We didn't no anything about the car but we seen it only on 2 pictures on the site of the auction. We make an offer and after a week we receive the email that the Hudson was ours. It was really a big surprise for us and then a week later we picked it up at the Belgium coast.

Our first meeting with the Hudson was Super. We only could say WOWWWWWW. It was love at first sight hihihi.

The Hudson was for the last time used in 2004 but last sunday we get it running again. My wife has made some videos ot it wich you can see at the following links:

Now we have to wait for a Dutch licence plate and then we can go on the road. During the summer we will drive oldtimer courses in Holland, Germany, Belgium and Luxemburg. In the winter the Hudson will be renovate.
