    Looks like long WB front fenders, hood emblem, sidetrim(removed). Maybe they added 4" when they put the subframe on or maybe it's not a pacemaker. There's also commodore or hornet taillites in the parts box. Paint (gold?) on the sides/fenders seems to match. This looks like STREETROD material, and may be priced right. I Like how it looks sitting there in the field.

    that's not a pacemaker.



    It's either a 51 hornet or commodore. I guess a hornet, here's why....



    1) taillights in the box, 51 hornet, look at the back shots, that's the kind that was on it before the super/pacemaker taillights were put on.



    2) Hudson Hornet glovebox emblem hmmm....



    3) Long wheelbase fenders, hood has a hornet/commodore hood ornament



    4) Door vent windows are crank style, a pacemaker would have had non cranking manual style.......



    5) Trunk has the rust spots that show the hudson crown molding that was used on 50-51 commodore and 51 hornet....



    6) Interior is more deluxe than one would find in a pacemaker (hint-- hornet)



    7) This car had side trim see the rust line? hornet/commodore/super also had the porkchops...



    8) I think the fenders are original to the car, paint, rust, etc... too similar.



    this things a 51 hornet coupe...



    just from my casual glance.....

    most likely what he reads as 64 is 6A. its a commodore six. yes,as posted earlier it appears to be long wheelbase, has the upper model vents, traces of trim and the taillights inside (with their mounting holes still in the rear), but the hood ornament is commodore and there is no trace of a trunk rocket.

    I want to revise my glove box lid to saying "commodore 6"



    after seeing the serial number, got me thinking perhaps I need to zoom in on that glove box in photoshop, see what I can make out, with some help with photoshop tools. One thing that comes out clear, is the separation between the last character, and the first series of characters. Since this was my only point to call this thing a hornet, I'll go with a commodore 6.
