cool photo

Why do I look at that photo and the 1st thing thru my mind is that the Hudson is a new 1950 Pacemaker. It just looks like a Pacemaker - and I have no reason on earth why I think that. I know, I know, it could be any model of that era.

Well, we know what the state of my mind is!!!!!!!!!!

Yeah Alex, but it's got Commodore tailights on it!

Large tail lights ,small rear window = 48-49 Commodore.

Ok guys, That is where I was born in 1949 ( Physicans Hospital)and lived there until 1952. And guess what, my grandfather had a maroon 1948 Commodore 4ds. It's hard to tell exactly the intersection, possible 37 Ave and 82nd St. There was a Fields Dept store down the street. A lot of store fronts in that area that match the photo. The apartment house behind is on 81st and the IRT #7 EL in the upper left corner. The local Hudson dealer was in Flushing near the present site of City Field, a couple miles east.

RonS's reply points out something about this forum - post something and there's a 99% chance somebody will come up with comments about it.

Which just shows to go you is that this HET club is one hell of a diverse bunch of people!!! :woohoo: May it ever be thus.

My Grandfather bought his 1942 Commodore 8 sedan at that dealer and my Dad bought a used 49 super 6 sedan. My Dad later traded his 49 super in for a 51 super sedan that he drove until 64...
