FYI

If anyone knows the current where abouts, or anything at all of the Hudson Jet pictured below, please let me know.

What happened to it after its racing days?
Is it still in existence, and if so, available?

Thanks in Advance

    Roger, if you're talking the 1990 Wichita, and there was a sign in the back window that read "This Ain't No Damn Ford" that one belonged to the legendary Kelly Hinegardner. I can't remember what color his was, tho.

    Thank you for the leads coming in, Actually, the original builder would like to buy it back if possible.
    I just recalled seeing a 'Red drag Jet' at the last Auburn In. Nationals but forget the owners name... That may be the car........Any idea who owns that Jet?

    I believe that was Vince Schenberger from IA. It sounded really good when he fired it up too!! Hope this helps, CG

    Alan Doran from Boone Iowa has two Jet Drag cars. One was Kelly Heingartner's. I don't think Vince is from Iowa. I thought he was from Kansas. PM me if you would like me to contact him let him know you want to talk. I think he just uses his cell.
