The WTN has arrived!
-
Just got it out of the mailbox. The first thing I saw was Hudsonsplasher's beautiful '39 Hudson convertible!
I'm sure it's going to be another outstanding job by Sam & Maryann!!!

Yep, What he said..That Convert looked better than in the picture...I met him as he was leaving the hotel and we were arriving.."It ain't easy bein' green'. -
Me to - in Memphis, TN.
First class rocks - only problem is it's 2 months to the next one
Hudsonly,
Alex Burr
Memphis, TN -
Spent the better part of today vacuuming, cleaning and re-organizing my workshop. It will be fine till the next time winds pick-up, then leaves, pine needles, dirt, etc..
Walked out and checked the mail late this afternoon - What a welcome surprise!
Like Kevin, I saw that 'nose', and knew there was a '39 on the back cover! -
Another great issue, to be sure. Thanks Sam and Mary Ann for all the hard work. What a great year of issues!
-
It's here! Yeah!
-
I am suprised I got mine so fast all the way over here on Maui, I was not even expecting it. Thats the best way to get it I think.
-
Glad I read this Post, checked with WIFE and she said that the WTN is here, BYE!
-
Sam and Mary Ann,
Another great job, it’s sad to bring this centennial year to a close though.
John -
Wow, At first look I thought , did I drive my car in the Snow!, but no its Hudsonsplasher's neat Terraplane! , and then his convert on the back!
Also neat to see the '30 Essex, back at the Hudson meets!
thank you to Sam and Mary Ann. A great year of WTN! -
OK, sitting at my window waiting for the Mailman. I expect that my WTN will be here any minute.......Brownie

WOW! What a nice suprise to see my 39 on the back cover, only to see my 37 on the front. With all of the beautiful cars in our club to choose from, I'm truly Honored. Thanks to Sam and Mary Ann and all who make our WTN second to none. It really made my day!
Gene. -
Oh NO! Hope my 'mail person' lets ME have it this time around.....................:eek:
-
A sad part of life is all the obituaries for this aging membership. My oldest son is only fourteen but we are already talking about what kind of car he wants.... the latest style Mustang, a 65-66 fastback Mustang, etc. I think I just might get him a cool stepdown or maybe even a rodded out pre-stepdown.
If we are going to keep the club alive, then we got to do something about it. I'll do my share! -
Arrived today in Florence, AL in good shape and a delight to see. Enjoyed reading it all afternoon. Hope you see yours soon. Thanks for a great mag. Bob

Got mine on Monday. First Class and neatly folded in half just like the last 5 or so! They keep creasing them somwhere in route.
As always, great job. I look forward to the next one. -

I would find humor in that if I had received mine. I have not.
Just like everyone who gets it I am thankful and grateful that it is in such skilled hands as yours.

The pot boil'th over. It made it yesterday while I was cutting new wood for door panels for the English Hudson (I love retirement). Had to stop and read it. I would call it the classic shop moment. Sitting on the running boards of a partly restored old Hudson, glass of diet coke at my feet, my basset hounds rolled up under foot and reading and grinning at each photo and hanging on every word. I always get excited when our small Utah Chapter is featured with a few words and a photo or two. Great Job-- We have come to expect fine work but each issue tops the last. Don't know how you do it. Love the cover and the back spread.....Brownie -
Not here yet! I'll be getting my shipment of extras before it arrives, looks like. Glad it turned out okay... HETfortyqtpi@earthlink.net (drop the HET)
-
As I read the WTN, what I really noticed about this issue is we have a club of many chapters that the members are busy participating in the various activities. Hudsoning is a very viable part of many people's lives.
-

I do not think you have heard the response if you think it only turned out okay.
Great, fantastic, and many other glowing reviews have been used to describe the WTN and its Editor.
I received mine today:D and will pour over every page several times before I get all there is out of it. There is no other publication I receive with such anticipation.
Thanks,
Todd -
Cant even believe it............
Been a month and I still DO NOT HAVE MY WTN!
Same thing happened last issue and Charlotte finally got me one. I have emailed her again this time but still nothing.
Getting real tired of 'someone' at the USPS who is jacking my mag!
Guess I have 2 options: Ask them to mail mine in a brown envelope or ride shotgun on the stage and 'go postal' on anyone who comes near it!
Frustrated, :mad:

That's just not right.
Obama promised he'd fix that.Workin Stiff -
Still waiting for mine. Richie.

I haven't received mine... I'm a new member and that may have something to do with it...
I'll continue to wait patiently for it...

I never got one either- I paid the extra for faster shipping too - not so sure I'll bother renewing -that is if I get a renewal notice

Let's be sensible about this - Each WTN is packaged and mailed thru/via the USPS. Regardless of how it goes - 1st Class or bulk rate - if it gets mutilated, misdirected or lost in the mail, it is not the HET Club's or Sam's fault...I never got one either- I paid the extra for faster shipping too - not so sure I'll bother renewing -that is if I get a renewal notice
Complaining or cancelling your membership won't help - If it hasn't arrived within a couple of weeks of when an issue is due, ask for a replacement issue...
Sam Jackson - Just send him an email.

Charlotte Sargent @ hetcharlottesargent@cox.net - and it won't hurt to drop Sam Jackson also @ hetfortyqtpi@earthlink.net . (drop the het's.)
Husonly,

Got my reply from Charlotte today. She is sending me a replacement one out!
I guess they cant mail one in an 'unmarked' package cuz they get mass mailed and all done up the same way.
Looks like I better clean and oil my shotgun..................
Jeff -
Jeff-
Silly thought maybe, but you DID check with Charlotte and make sure they have the correct address listed for you? Just trying to give the postal workers the benefit of the doubt . . . for now, anyway. -
Thanks Russell, nice try, and they arent ALL bad--just the one thats jacking my issue!! LOL
Its only been a problem for the last two issues so I know my address is good!
Jeff -
Haven't got mine yet. Rejoined the National organization three months ago, and haven't received squat. Hmmmm?"The time has come", the Walrus said, "to speak of many things. Of shoes and ships and sealing wax, of cabbages and kings. And why the sea is boiling hot,
And whether pigs have wings..." -
I didn't receive my Nov/Dec issue in the mail, either, and I'm the freakin' editor. Every magazine loses about 2-3% of every issue to the vagaries of the USPS. For a big deal like Hemmings, that amounts to a lot of mags. We actually do better than that...as far as I can tell, we're running approximately 40/3700. We try to make sure EVERY member gets a magazine...if yours didn't arrive after a reasonable time, you just have to ask. :rolleyes:HETfortyqtpi@earthlink.net (drop the HET)
-
I got two copies. One had my old membership expiration date of 10/2009, then about 7 Dec I got the second copy with a the new date of 10/2010.
Need to watch the duplication of efforts and save the cost of printing two copies and sending them to me. -

Sam, I e-mailed Charlotte yesterday and she answered me last night and will send me my WTN, Richie. -
A lot of postal service losses are due to their processing machines. A couple of years ago WTN's were being torn up and people were receiving only the paper cover. We switched to plastic bags like other magazines at considerable expense. That helped. But with the USPS, you never know what's coming next.
