Just for the Hudson community ...Thanks for putting up with my some times silly questions while getting this one back on the road. Test drove it just this week.16 months of daily work and will not tell what it costs as every one that cares knows.

    Congratulations - looks really really good. You've done a great job and I hope you enjoy every mile you drive down the road.
    And, by they way - there really isn't anything like a "silly question" - just silly answers.

    That is about the color that my wife painted our second kitchen. Needless to say, I am crazy about it. Sure looks good on the 54.
  • Thought I was the only 1...........I had a 54 hornet and did away with all that goddy trim crap too,all the trim does is rot a car out.Great looking Hudson there.
  • The car was in very neglected from the start. hail damage and not a straight panel on it. I just had to concentrate all efforts on gettting it on the road for the least $$$$. Later I can readress the pork chops and trim ect....My older brother told me to deleat the belt line trim and clean it up to make it look more 50tys rod like. Post some photos of your 54,please.More will be done but still working out all the bugs in the wiring ,drivablity issues. Inside will get attention as soon as these issues are dealt with. Have always liked flat head 6's and when I researced out the 308 ,I had to have this mile stone engine.So far very pleased with the road ablity of it as compared to a 41 Chrysler I had with fluid drive.It is a real car.
