Really?! No title and Not registered... why, would someone waste all the money on a car that is not insured.
Poor 1951 Hudson :-(

A bit heavy on the diamond plate, and the price :(

Man that would gag a maggot!!!!! I had much rather see an old car go to the crusher, than wind up mutilated like this

I am thinking that he wanted a Dodge? It could be saved, but for me the diamond plate would have to go. After that, it could be a good hot rod. The rest of the work looks acceptable???

Title and Licence is not a big issue--there are ways.

I would hide it somewhere. My God how hideous can a grille get ?

I did not see it at first, but he welded the rear doors to the quarter panel to make it a coupe.

Must work for a fab shop and get diamond plate and expanded metal for free. What an awful mess. I'd want auto pilot so I could lay down in the back seat so no one would see me in the thing.

Replacement grille parts are available at Home Depot!

Very strange. I've never seen diamond plate on a hot rod before, and now I know why. The thing needs clearance lights and a set of horns off a Peterbilt to complete the "look".

I remember my grandad saying "Just because you can do something doesn't mean you should."

Oh My, Im sure they are proud of it but, I would burn and crush my Hudsons if I knew that was going to happen to mine! If I was dead I would come back from the grave, at least turn over accouple of times,and haunt the builder. lol

Bargain down to Eleven thou or so. Buy the car, rip out & cut off the plate. Looks like there is a lot of it.
That should bring 300 to 500 at the scrap yard depending on the price of aluminum.
Buy a couple of cases of beer and sit and think about what to do next.
Then go and buy a case of Scotch. Think some more. LOl.
This guy was on a bad acid trip for quiet a while & this is the offspring.

I looked at the pictures a few times and even the underside of the hood has the plate.

Egads,Yikes,Eek and WTH.

Something isn't right over the rear wheels either. The panels look kindof wavy, like tacked on thin sheet metal ...

Here are some pictures of it, since it is still listed.
