    No, Bill, not the same car. The car I bought from you was an automatic and this one is a 3spd/OD car.

    Man, I'd say you passed the test with flying colors.



    Life is soooo unfair for someone to have TWO Hudsons of that caliber! slim

    It would be great if you did another photo test on the 54 and try some under hood and interior close ups!

    Great cars Steve, my two choices of what I'm looking for, 49 Brougham or 37 T-Plane pick up. Both your rides are great and your pictures worked just fine.

    Ok, I can do that in a few days. Right now I have a disabled Studebaker parked behind the Hornet and have to remedy that situation before I can get it back out of the garage.:D

    The upholstery looks fantastic, exactly what my interior should look like. Where did you get the fabric that looks like the original? I want some for mine BAAAAAAAAAD

    Chris, believe it or not, my Hornet has been restored for 24 years now. If I remember correctly, the interior fabric all came from Bill Hirsch.

    What AC unit is that and how are you ducting into the interior are you feeding that into the Hudson heater unit or have you hidden the ducts up under the dash. I want to add AC to my 54 Hollywood and I want to hide the ducting maybe inside the stock Hudson unit.

    It's mounted in the trunk as might have been done by the dealer or the local ARA Auto Air dealer. The trunk unit itself is hidden by a blind panel. The air register is in the rear package shelf. I'll try to get a picture of it
