    Just a interesting poster produced by the Ohio Highway Patrol.
    Does anyone remember seeing a Hudson Patrol car?

    And you were just driving by them as they were sitting off the roadside? The weren't having you sign the sales bill through the driver's window?

    Sheldon - Yes, we used to service a few of the Hornet Specials they used on the Ohio Turnpike. I believe that is the only road they used the Hornets on. I believe they had a total of 15 or 16 units, all of them Club Sedans.

    The State Patrol museum in Anchorage Alaska has a display on the Hudsons that they used. I have a couple of photos but I am not on my home computer. I understand that the Montana State Police also used Hudson Hornets to catch bad guys.
