    There's a rebuilt '48-'52 version available here just north of Atlanta. Price about $2800, I believe. e-mail me directoly at hetpwald@mindspring.com (remove the "het" first).
  • If you want to a rebuildable core, I have a boat anchor from a '48 Super 8 that is locked up. It's missing the electrical components as I have them on my six cylinder or as spares. Email me at HETjasper3@charter.net if you're interested. I'm in Hickory, NC.
  • My uncle has the engine from a '51 C8. I believe it has never been rebuilt so is on standard bore. The manifolds are missing but I think it is otherwise complete. He is thinking in the range of $500 or so. We are in Baltimore but there is some chance he will be going to Florida in April; if he drives his truck he would consider delivering it, probably for an extra fee. He would like to talk to you if you are interested. You can contact me at dwardo4@comcast.net

    Hi,



    I have a 1949 Commodore 8 - fairly complete, non-running straight 8 with the overdrive transmission that I'd like to see go to someone who can use them to get another Hudson on the road. I'd sell them complete 250.00
