    got the 49 on the road. it has a 500 caddy motor, suicide doors, 61 ply dash, bumperette tail lights, straight pipes, and equipped with hydros...still a project but its a daily driver

    What an interesting combination of items you have there. I can't realy tell
    but it looks like you made your own steering wheel . Looks like a Hudson hub
    and coloumn but the outer parts of the wheel - I don't know.
    I love the bumperette/tail light's ,

    I like the Buick headlights, and the bumperette tail lights- where did they come from?

    On second thought- are they Kaiser headlights?

    Very nice! Different and unique with enough of the original car untouched so we know what we're looking at. I really like the Plymouth dash. Definitely, more pics!
    Six in a row makes it GO!

    Glad it's another Hudson on the road. Lots to like about it but don't really like the Buick headlights... looks too much like a Buick....

    I see you need a left side windshield, contact Jason at Albrights, he has the glass. Walt.

    I like the car. First Hudson I've seen with Buick headlamps, they look good. That's a great meld with the Plymouth dash, wouldn't have thought it would work so well.

    My good friend , Starkey, worked in the design department of Hudson in 1951 and 1952. From there he went to Chrysler design and in 1960 designed this instrument panel that you installed in your car. Your choice is very orginal.
