Just read on H.A.M.B. that Hudson48 is thinking of bringing his Awsome Custom Hudson from Australia to the U.S. for some cruising over here. Beautiful car!
Peace,

Now that would be a fun thing to do, bringing stuff from down under and show you guys up there there is as much talent down here and across the water LOL

what would be the process that you would have to do and how would you go with driving a right hand drive up there without having the acid put on you by each cop through the different states as you would have to do route 66

Wouldn't THAT be sweet!

On of my "lottery ticket fantasies" is to fly down under and return with a couple shipping containers of Hudson/Terraplane "Utes" (and yes, I have seen "My Cousin Vinny").

We've had our eye on this one for several years - I'd love to see it in person.

(BTW - MCV is a great movie

)

No law against right hand drive cars, as far as I know. Postmen drive them all the time. "Bring it on"- would love to see that car in person.

This would be nice to put on the todo list, closest I have come to the states is Hawaii, would like to stay there long enough so I could bring back another car 3 Months, choosing would be the problem, there is talk here that the Mustang club has put the acid on our Land transport Aurthority here and in 2012 only limited Edition cars can come into our country without being converted to RHD, this would include 55-57 chevys, fords etc etc, as they have seen the value of the mustang dump itself here, they are being eletist, thats what happens when you have a dime a dozen brand LOL

though you could order the lastest gone in 60 seconds Elenor as there is only x amount being built

I think it has to be production numbers of less than 500-1000 something like that

I'd suggest he time his visit for the Paso Robles show on Memorial Day weekend. Can't think of a better venue for that car... although the Nationals in Spokane in August would work, too.

Wow! Now that one I want to see! I sure hope he comes to the States and at least somewhere close enough for me to travel to, though depending on the time of year, we can have some very wild and nice weather here in Phoenix. Would love to see yours too Mike if you could make it over! That would cover a few wishes I would have for a while.

Leave it to the Aussies. One of the Kiwi's brought his 34 Huddie 8 to the national in Pontiac. Now an Aussie's want to bring his car up.

As the old schnozzola (Jimmy Durante to you young 'uns not old enough to remember) would say "Everybody's got to get into the act!!!"

I'd like to see the car if he comes across the ditch with it. And don't worry about the cops - the New Zealand folks said they got stopped 3 or 4 times. The cops wanted to see the car!!!!! I think a couple wanted their pictures take with it.

The owner asked, in LA when he picked up the car and got all the paper work taken care of what he had to do to drive it on American roads. The fellow at the shipping company just pointed to the gate!!!! LOL
