  • Sorry, but IMHO, the starting bid and BIN amounts may scare some away. Great looking car though.

    THAT IS ONE SWEET LOOKING RIDE..... I MAY HAVE TO MAKE ROOM FOR THAT ONE.......
  • Now, with a little body and drivetrain massaging, that would be a cool car, Niels! LOL!!!

    Anyway, a really beautiful car, man. I'm sure you'll get a good price for it. Wish I had a rear seat like that, I want one to put cup and remote control holders in.

  • Neils, how did you do the filters?



    aren't they "oil bath" with what appears to be filters in them?



    Were they converted over, or what?



    I would love to know!



    Nice ride BTW...

    I had to relist it. E-bay took it of because I had "not Ford or Chevy" in the title. They consider it spam. It's back on there. Thanks!

    Almost missed it. Does not have the word "Hudson" in the auction title and will only appear if you search both title and text. You might want to change that. Out of my price range, but what a sweet ride!

    FYI- I have just confirmed with Bill Albright that he did the total restoration on this car in 1999. It has been professionally maintained by Lloyd Miller ever since.



    I see that the radiator is a round tank. Is this the correct radiator for this car or is it supposed to be square? I am having this issue with my 51's.

    you could mention the 12 volt system, and paper filters. the car had a NOS SPEEDO WITH ALL ZEROS WHEN I SOLD IT. HOW MANY MILES HAS IT RACKED UP TROUBLEFREE, NEILS?????

    Car has 68,585 on it. Lloyd Miller, HET club member in CA has been servicing it professionally since 2000. He is an excellent and well respected Hudson mechanic. He can tell anyone what they want to know about it. One impressive thing about the car is it even has NOS front inner fenders. When's the last time you seen a pair of those?

    The reason that I asked was because my Pacemaker has a round tank with a 51 tag on it and my Hornet has a square one. I didn't feel that it was nitpicking, just an honest question, Bill. Sorry I asked.

    He was joking with you.

  • FYI- car did not sell but I do have a couple guys talking to me about it and I turned down a low ball offer. The auction had almost 2000 hits on the e-bay and 48 watchers. Sold or unsold, it's nice to see the public interested in these cars.
