Asking what a car is worth is somewhat like asking if a girl is cute. There is a lot to take into consideration. Old Car's Price Guide lists 29 different models for the 1937 year, 36 for 1939 and then places them into five classes based on condition. Their top value for a 37 is $41,000 and it is for the Custom eight, Series 74, 122" wheel base 2 door convertible broughm. 1937 Hudsons are not scarse but seem to be cars our members like. If you go with the standard used by Old Cars price Guide the "not running" restorable 1937 coupes run from $1,500.00 to $1,700.00. Fully restored the same coupes reach a top value of $14,000.00. The 39's are a bit more rare and go for about 20 percent more with the exception of the Country club series that are about 30 percent more.



This estimate is just as "ball park" as the question. Give us some photo's and descriptions (model, condition and such) and a better estimate might show these could sell for a bit higher. And, then there is always the option of putting them on eBay and making a killing.



Hope this helps, if you would like more information drop me a note: browniepetersen@readytek.net



Petersen Historical Automobile Appraisals

those are not coupes, they are two door sedans. To appeal to a larger market, like the street rod contingent, the coupes are far more desireable. These look like they were stored inside, for some time, and recently were put out to pasture. Hopefully the owner is realistic, and will sell, but these are likely cars you want to buy with the idea of keeping. The two door sedans are nice, but I would venture to say the coupes are far more desireable. They both look to have potential, I would figure you could buy to resell, but in the end, keep in mind the market we are in. Best of luck.
