It's a GM part, but it might be a bit overpriced.

    Just my luck I had two of them that I tossed in the garbage just the other day. I said to myself their not a Hudson item so they couldn't be worth much. Oh well such is life. I'd rather have my Hudsons.





  • SIZE=4]OH MY GOD!!![/SIZE] At least I already know which way is north. Now I hope I just don't find a Hudson compass and get a case of the wants! :eek:

  • All I got to say, is that I am going to go thru that 40 chevy we pick up tomorrow, and look for an original compass!



    Looks like high bidder is buying all of the 40 chevy parts...



    Don't anyone tell my dad!
  • Come on guys wake up, thats a genuine Chev part. Back in the day that was hand fashioned from a single silver ingot by a craftsman. It was hand polished in a pain stakingly involved process that took 55 days four hours and 23 minutes to complete and to make it even more valuable the craftsman was shot after making it, instantly making it a sought after item. And if that wasn't enough it was so advanced for the 40's it even had an iPod port just in case, of course at the time no one knew why such a port was included but the farsighted engineers at Chev are having the last laugh.



    Underpriced for all that if you ask me.
  • Wow, thats' pretty steep. Only in America. :(
