    Hi Gang:

    I am looking for the right tail light housing and s/s retaining ring for early '52 Hornet. Housing will be stamped "steel".

    Thank you!!

    Contact Glen Johnson in Brigham GMC46golden@aol.com Glen took a pair down to the platers last week and I am not sure if they were spoken for or not....

    Brownie-

    You are referring to the later '52's in your post. Hudnut is referring to early 52's.

    Hudnut-

    Good luck with that one! I have two lefts and have needed a right and been looking for the last 5 years. Most knowledgeable Hudson folks have told me to give it up. I'm going to spend a little more time searching as I have a few feelers out right now. Shortly, though it's going to be time to have bentmetal here on the forum fabricate a new one for me, as the "bucket" is the only piece I am missing (I have the bezels and glass).

    As I understand it, only the first couple hundred 52's had these unique taillights.

    Thanks Russell. I did not realize that there was a difference. I checked and you are right.
