    Car looks good! Where's the visor? Did you change your mind about having it on there? Also, I see you got a VW in your garage. Hope you don't get side tracked from the Hudson.:D

    Haven't seen you in a while, best wishes to you and your family.:)

    Now that's one rear-end that ought to stay put! I can easily picture all that, painted and polished. Looks like you didn't have a big issue of rust to deal with either. GREAT WORK ! Keep those pic's coming!

    That's awesome! I'm running mine right now w/ a single 2" w/ no muffler. It sounds great. Any chance of a short audio or youtube clip of yours so we can hear it?

    Interesting Hudson project. what are you doing for mufflers or glass packs?

    I have a 50 Commodore with the 308 and stock exhaust. I am thinking of splitting the exhaust with glass packs or something. any suggestions ?

    Your car looks great. You must like the look of the rear, I don't think I've seen a picture from the front?:)
