Door handle guards
-
Does anyone know where you originaly purchased( and had installed) the stainless gaurds that many stepdown Hudsons have between the handle and body. I see two differant styles, a ribbed style and a flater slightly rectangular style. Did the dealer sell them? Is there a Hudson part #? Thanks to Victor Z for the gas tank guard part illustration &part #.
-
They were a Hudson dealer installed option. The rectangular were 1948-50 and ribbed style 1951-54.

Thanks Dave. You've answered a question even before I could ask. I have a set of four on my 53 parts car. Ribbed style and very nice. Will put them on my 54. Michel.dave s wrote:They were a Hudson dealer installed option. The rectangular were 1948-50 and ribbed style 1951-54. -
Dave, My 53 had flat rectangular on it, But never the less, Where is that part listed and what were they actually titled? I may need to verify this for judging. Thanks.

I BOUGHT TWO SETS FROM EBAY A FEW YEARS AGO, THEY CAME IN ORGINAL BOXES. THE NAME ON THE BOX IS "STYLE-KING", NO. 106. IT SAYS IT FITS ALL HUDSONS, 1948--53, EXCEPT 53 JET.

There was / is a guy selling 40 plus NOS sets of these on e-bay just a couple weeks ago. The box said fit Hudson and Studebaker. Very nice stainless pieces.... I'll see if I can find the ad.

Here is the info...
I bet he still has them available. I could have bought all of them for $10.00 each.....

They are listed in Hudson accessory folder as door handle guards. We have them on both our AACA Senior and Grand National First Place car. The only time I was questioned was when we had our 49 coupe entered for senior judging. I showed judge folder and he said OK and thank you. We received senior at banquet that night. If you need copy of accessory folder, send me SASE.

I didn't see a "Buy Now" button on the page, but sent the guy an e-mail. Hope he still has some left! -

Did you ever hear back from him? Does he have any left? -
Yes, I heard back and he is out. I still would like to find a pair just like the ones he had.
