Local Show
-
There was a small car show in town this morning. There were two Hudsons; me and Norman Jacks. Normans Jet was beautifully turned out. I emptied my ashtrays and scraped off the bird doo.
I heard the story about a Hudson dealer in Matthews VA again today. The man is supposed to have 3 step-downs in front of his Texaco station and a dozen or so out back. I have to drive out there soon and check it out.

Always great to see Hudsons at a car show. You just don't see them as often in multi-make events like this one looks to be. Thanks for sharing some great photos! What's the name of this car show? Is that Norman standing by the Jet or you?Take a Ride in a Hudson Jet!

Sarah,
That's Norman Jacks with his car. This was certainly an all-makes show, sponsored by the local Advance auto parts. I don't remember the event name, and can't find the flyer now. There was no registration or judging; you just showed up and socialized with the others. It was fun.

I like those kind of shows the best, no registration or judging.Dave W.
What's life without a Hudson? -
All,
I referenced my 2010 roster this morning and found a member in a small town near Matthews VA with 29 Hudsons listed. The name matches one suggested by another member. I'll try to arrange a visit to take pictures.

looks Great

Be nice for you to check out this guy. I once found 14 Hudsons in a Farmers pasture and bought two Hornet coupes so these things can happen. Please let us know what you find! -
