    Some may call this normal---I call it sad. That was a nice looking car that looked better than a lot that show up on our Forum for restoration.

    That does hurt doesn't it......all the sheet metal in the back looked really good!! And some of the damage in the front was probably from loading it into the crusher.......very sad!!!
    This Hudson project is starting to scare the crud out of me!!!

    We have a real problem with this America. Cars and homes destroyed way to early with Insurance Companys saying it was not cost effective to

    restore it or bring it back. Cars and all antiques are just like your Family, once they are gone there is no bringing them back. Sad world we live in.

    NOOO! STOP! (that driver's window can still be saved!) OMG, now Doc Hudson's just a block of scrap metal on its way to China!

    That'll make 5 Chinese cars in comparative metal terms.. Our culture is too wasteful...too many things are disposable. Technology is great and all but there's some things from the past that are worth keeping. I don't think old stuff should be discarded wholesale. My garage is a testimate to that. heheh
