I got my cars from the farm...

[Deleted User]

Howdy,



Just wanted to update those who care.... I went and looked at my Hudson "farm find" and bought two Hudson Hornet coupes.. a 52 and a 53 both have twin-H with three speed w o/d. They need total resto but everything is there, they are coupes and I think the price was right. One may run with a new battery and gas. The other cars were too much work or not my cup of tea.



I looked at the "Barn Full" of parts. Lots of stuff but didn't have time to look at it all completely. I took pictures though, will post when I return. There are a couple sets of Stepdown hubcaps and trim rings, about seven to ten twin-h aircleaners, three or four manual trans, one or two auto-trans, quite a few later stepdown instrument panels, two gas tanks, three 308 engines (one complete), a few bumpers, some rear tail light assemblies (they were dust dust covered but may be NOS), quite a bit of chrome pieces, two complete rear ends, a few truck lids and hoods, lots of rims, etc. Not sure yet how this will all end up as part of the deal.

Hi Ron,



I have been talking to a couple guys from day one who are interested and I am keeping my promise to give them first shot on what I pass on. I just got home and I will e-mail them the pictures and info tomorrow and see what they want to do. If they decline then I gladly pass on the owners contact info. He's a nice guy and the cars are restorable. I am not a restorer or mechanic. They are just too much for me to spend time with. There is one fellow that I have done Hudson business with and had a very poor experience with. The owner knows his name should he ever call. Niels

If I recall I think you said you got these cars in Washington, State??



If so perhaps there is a 1954 Washington State Liscence Plate floating around..I sure would like to get one in GOOD condition..





Thanks,









Tom

Hi Tom,



My e-mail is nptelcel@aol.com. E-mail me with your phone number and I'll call you when I get the two cars (two- three weeks?). I know one of them has Washington plates and since I am in California, I won't need them and you can have them gratis. Niels

I got a decent one on ebay for my 49 - I just did a search but the washington plates offered currently on ebay are pretty rough.



Those 54 washington plates are kinda different because it looks like 54 was a base year plate and they used metal tags for subsequent years like the picture.

Yep California is the same set up.... Tom, I'll let you know what's on there when I get it. Niels
