I am just wondering, how rare are these Hudsons? How many where manufactured?

Any Information on Hudson would be much appreciated.

It is one Hudson I would love to acquire if I ever got the chance. Preferably in a year or two after I finish restoring my current projects.

    The HAMB picture was posted several years ago. Moses Lake was the location of a longtime HET member who found purchased and towed home to the "farm" many Hudson automobiles. Most were moved there at the end of a hand cranked tow dolly connected to the owners Hudson driver. I believe there was an auction a decade or more ago to sell off the collection.

    On other historic posts Bill Albight (RIP) states he sold his restored 37 T panel to Hemming Motor News. Further that HMN repainted the truck to match thier green motif.

    Another post from Lance Walker states... the origin of Bill's restoration was a Pennsylvania based HETer who stored the former funeral car in a barn for years before Bill bought and restored it.

    As another poster shared, I too have had the pleasure of viewing and riding in the HMN panel.

    Rare vehicles but still Hudsoning Fun!

    Considering the condition of that beauty, I would want to find something in a lot worse shape and in this case the more rust the better.
