    There she is! Needs a little work, missing a few things. But ain't she purdy? I think it's a '24. Correct me if I'm wrong but I believe at this point it could be either a Hudson or an Essex. I believe this much of the car were the same on both?

    Knowing you Bent, this will be on the road in time for the National in French Lick? What do you want it to be when it grows up--Hudson 7-Passenger Sedan by Biddle & Smart???

    Got another piece of the puzzle! Mr. Lee O'Dell found the ID tag and brought it to me. Thanks again Lee!!!

    Got a question for you guys. I noticed on the ID tag that their is no Japanese writting on the bottom, where the pattend info is. I've seen other tags that did have. Anyone know what the difference is there?

    By the way, this not a re-pop. It's an original tag that came off this cowl/firewall.
