While driving around at work yesterday there was a 4 door green step down parked on Palo Verde Ave. It looked like a nice clean Hudson. Ron

    It was James Loveall's '51 Hornet sedan. He stores it in a garage there. I used to have the garage next to him!

    Thanks....It was parked in the street so I guess James must have been close buy. I take it you lived near Long Beach at one time ?

    A friend of mine said the other day she saw a Hudson, but it was passing by too quick for her to give me much detail. I have yet to see one around here,but apparently there are a couple of you guys right here in my back yard.

    Maybe my front yard would be better. I am south of Del Amo, west of Woodruff and east of Bellflower. Two blocks from the Jack in the Box and the Taco Bell.

    Oh ya...I can see your house from mine. Small world. There is a guy that has some older cars on Arbor Rd. east of Bellflower. I thought he had a Hash but I think its a Nash and some others.

    Wouldn't be Mesquite by any chance. Have a friend from another car club that retired from Orange County and moved up there.

    Mesquite is way down south of you. We Are in the Northern Snow belt, and many years from being retired!

    Your title says Northern Nevada so I took a guess at Mesquite. I can assure you though Mesquite is not way south of me.:confused:

    Looks like we both got a little turned around. I had it in my head mesquite was farther north than it is. I guess because after driving through their twice and being right before Utah it was just farther north. After looking at the map it is quite in the souther part of Nevada but still way north of me. ;)
