'48 or '49 Super Series Brougham (2 Dr) that someone has installed Commodore Tail Lamps on and a pair of 1950 thru 1953 front fender top ornaments too.

The red one in the back looks like a HLWYD to me.

One of these days I'd like to find a 2DR Brougham in about this shape and turn it into a '52 Hornet. I'm not even sure this one is worth even half of what they are asking.

No Brougham Hornets ever, methinks- maybe '54, they did some strange things in the "final days".

No, Mike is right. Hudson did make the '54 Hornet Special (a stripped-down Hornet), which was available in the newly-named 2DR Club Sedan (same as a Brougham or 2DR Sedan, which were former names). But, a full blown Hornet in the 2DR Sedan was not made.

In '51-'53(4), four body styles were available in the Hornet line: Convertible, HLWYD, Club Coupe and Sedan.

I just thought it would be cool to "make" a '52 Hornet 2DR Sedan and someday have all "5" models for '52. I currently have a sedan and a convertible and have a pretty good opportunity at a HLWYD.

I think the look of that long roof line like on the sedan and the 2DR Sedan is hard to beat and the 2DR model is way cooler than a 4DR.

. . . the car Hudson shoulda' made: the HORNET 2DR Sedan!

the holes in the hood might have been an crude attempt to bring more air to the carbs since looks like choke butterflys were removed(?) Broughams are rare, but setting in the ground probably ate the floorpans...
