ClassicCar

thank you for your interest. i have pictures which i am waiting for my son (the computer geek) to help me access and include in my emails.....my hudson is 1950 stepdown 4 dr, sky blue, in "pretty good" condition, great running when everything is put together. last year we pulled everything out so we could install a newly purchased custom wiring harnass, and it still sits gutless in the driveway. if you know Al Saffrahn, hudson club member, he did most of the restoration work on many parts over the last 12 years that i have owned it. and lots of supplies from KGap, and other club busineses. the body is in really great condition, except for a small part (about the size of a man's fist) of "bubbling" rust on the front passngr side of the hood. inside front floor pan needs fixing--rusted out holes in sections--your foot wont break thru, but it does need repair. headliner is good but whoever installed it (befor i got it) did a quickee with the piping which was a sloppy job. original seat covers are preserved under blue naugahide, back seat is clean and really good condition but front seat cover needs to be replaced/drivers side is torn. no parts are missing, fuel sender never worked properly--restored the original but still not work right; speedo resotred, mileage/i have to look that up . if anyone wants a classic that is guaranteed to get attention on the road and off, this is the one to have. after looking at some junker hudsons & mercs for sale at crazy prices, i could get more than 8 thousand, and it certainly could sell for 30 thou or more when fully restored, which doesnt require much more. i was offered 10 thou when it was running but i was not interested in selling at the time. of course, everyone thinks their classis is worth more, but everyone who sees and has driven/or been a passenger in this car leaves with unforgetable memories! i have never seen a classic get as much attention as this car! this one looks like the mercurys that the lowriders love to have. the thing is, right now i have all the parts in boxes spread around the house and garage...dont want to store them in the car so as not to attract breakins...so far no one has bothered it since it looks like it is parked waiting for a drive. everything works on the dash, clock is hand wind, interior/exterior lights work, whitewalls, brakes done about 10yrs ago. i honestly dont know how i am going to go about selling this car, since my family doesnt want people coming onto the property at all hours of the day and night to look at my car, im not sure how to go about this selling business!! this is probably frustrating for you because i want to sell it but i dont know what the next safe step is. so im open to suggestions. i will email you as soon as my son gets the photos available. again thanks for your interest. sometimes the unplanned buy/sell opportunity works best. this would be someone's lucky find like it was mine when i first got it.

In the condition it is in, I would say $2-3k, at the most.
