Hello from the road ....
-
Hello from Tulsa, OK ....
It is snowing this morning but at least it is above 0 degrees
I am on the road most days, when I am not driving I spend
time on the internet.
I like Hudsons, chevys, mopars :cool:

Good Morning, trulyvintage! It's amazing how many Hudson folks are also Mopar fans. Apparently you like Fords, as well. Nice '36! Stay warm and welcome to the forum!
-
Goodday trulyvintage. It is good to have you on the Forum. Nice 36! Looks to be in great condition. Nice Hudson as well. I expect it is a 49 Brougham? Looks to be a bit of work in this one. Is this your first Hudson? Would love to see some photo's of your other cars. I also have a thing for Chevrolets.Brownie
-
Welcome aboard!!! You'll find this forum to be real "people" friendly. You got problems - somebody will have the answer.
I'm one of the nut cases on this forum - I like Hudsons, Mopar and (sigh) Ramblers.
I have a lot of Hudson related material on my web site (the following address is temporary - the HET club VP/webmaster/guru/and all around good guy is putting together a more permanent site. For the moment
hetclub.org/burr will suffice.
Y'all have a good one, hear.

:)Welcome to the Forum, A great group of people that are very helpful and give encouragement when we get in a problem spot with our Hudson's. Yes, I like Hudson's along with mopars and International's and Ramblers. Actually, I like all older cars, be it Ford or Chevy or whatever. That Hudson looks like a real project, nice Ford roadster. Arnie in Nevada
-
I suspect your post is showing your one of "your loads" and that you transport cars for a living? Is the Hudson in question the 2 door that was recently posted to Craigs List in Texas? Brougham Hudsons seem to be getting a lot of attention lately. Welcome... to the Hudson BBS.
-
Thanks to all who have welcomed me

Yes, I do custom transport.
I haul with my own equipment.
The Hudson you see pictured is a 1950 model
that belongs to Sean in Plymouth, Maine.
I shipped it for him last year from Portland, Oregon.

Jim
Plymouth, Maine - I lived in (southern) Maine for near 70 years, afore I moved to Memphis, TN, and I'd never heard of Plymouth, Maine. I can see why - it's one of those small towns tucked into the middle of nowhere up by Bangor.

Jim- I think I've posted about this before, but went back through this post and didn't find it.
There' an antique tractor board at www dot ytmag dot com- look on the left for "hauling board"- you can enter either "need hauled" or "available to haul". It has a pretty good readership, might help you line up some loads.
Interesting you're going to Rochester, WA- That's where I grew up. I live about 20 miles from there now- I sure didn't get far!. -
For all those in the path of the 'historic blizzard' I sympathize with you .....

I am leaving Evanston, WY where it is well below zero with the wind chill and headed west along I-80 to warmer temperatures in California
If anyone needs hauling, I have about 20 feet of room to Oakland, CA
From Oakland, I have room for parts down to Los Angeles.
From Los Angeles, I am headed east again across the country to
Boston, MA - I have about 18 feet of room to haul a car :whistle:
Best way to get ahold of me is by phone

HI,
I'm in Wendover, NV
I could get that on this trip.
I need the overall length of the vehicle.
It would be best to call me or give me a number that I can reach you.
If we work out the details, it would be picked up in the next few days.
Thanks-

No offense intended, but I'm going to move this thread to "Discussions", which is our place for all Forum messages not specifically Hudson-oriented. Car transport is a service that's very helpful for Hudson owners, but in general the "Hudson" board was intended for technical and historical issues, restoration tips or other Hudson-related matters.

Hi Guy.
Bought a tractor (7500lbs) close to Omaha Ne. It needs a ride to my here in Denver. Any help? -

Geez, I hope you made sure that thing isn't loaded!
I still get a shock sometimes when I look in the rearview mirror and a Hudson is tailgating me (on the trailer). Guess it would be a little off-putting to look back down the barrel of a howitzer, as well!:ohmy: -
