I just got a 1930 hudson 2dr coach project car. It had been in a field in arizona for over 40 years when my dad bought the car 6 years ago and he just gave it to me, needed the room for other projects. I am planning on a street rod and will post pics of it when I get them uploaded to the computer. just some info on the car, all the wood is rotten of course and the interior was gone, glass gone.... but ALL of the sheet metal is there and NO RUST HOLES AT ALL...which is amazing to me here in minnesota. there are some bullet holes but easily fixable. More info coming and Ihope to hear from many of you and get all the advice I can. this is my first big project and I want to do it right

Hey great project keep us posted!!!

bent metal

Nice car! I love the double cowl vents, hope you don't fill those in.

That car is a great candidate for several varieties of a rod, traditional, street, resto-rod, etc. Just whatever you decide on, please don't put a Ford grille on it. Keep it pure and you'll get alot more admiration and attention from all the roodin' type folks. Keep us updated on your progress.
