Check out these die cast models that are for sale out of Park City, Utah (should ring a bell). He has quite a few of these and in all of the colors. Give him a call if you have a personal request. He is in the HET Member Roster.

    That is a good shipping price. I didn't know how much shipping would be when someone asked if I would ship one to him. He gave me $15 dollars for shipping. It cost me $28 dollars for shipping box and shipping. Sold the model for $60 and lost $8 on shipping. Live and learn. Said I would never ship one again unless all shipping costs were covered. Have to find a less costly shipper and box up myself.

    I have a few Highway 61 cast models if anyone is interested. They are all race car models. 1952 and 1953 models.

    Have a good day.

    Price is decent - as I recall these went for $59 and change from 61. I got the '52 black and white off ebay for $30 a while back. Nobody bid on it except me!!!!!!!

    I also picked up the smaller 1930 Hudson coupe for something around $8 - same deal, no other bidders at the time.
    And then I won another as a door prize at New England Chapter meet!!! :P

    Post office has those fixed price shipping boxes- I think they're quite a bit less than you paid, Lee.

    And all this time I felt sorry for you because I thought you didn't have a Hudson!
    My wife (Joan) won a 52 convertible at Pontiac. Guess that's the only convert. I'll get close to!.

    SuperDave - I have several Hudsons. I have an Essex coupe that has a box in the trunk and was used to haul Checks from the Deluxe Check Printers around Chicago's financial district circa 1927; I have Marshall Teagues #6 Hornet and Tim Flocks #92 Hornet; plus the afore mentioned 1930 Hudson 8 Coupes. Best part is my home owners insurance covers them, they don't leak oil on the floor and I can take all of the at the same time wherever. Ok, so I can't drive them - but at least I can sit at my computer and look at them!!!

    Hudsonly,
