Disc brakes '40 coupe
-
Could someone tell me what's involved in changing over to disc brakes for a '40 Hudson coupe and price range, or what rims would fit the drum brakes besides the originals til I gather up some cash to do it.

Check with Bill Labud (sp?) in florida i believe. He does them for 41 and up and had found them able to do for a 37 in the past. He may just be able to do one for the 40 without much modificaitons. I have seen his add in the recent Modified Hudson Club newsletter.
Otherwise you can go with fatman fabs complete front kits.
Good luck! -

Can you tell me more about the "Modified Hudson Club" and it's newsletter? I didn't know there was a seperate club for modified Hudsons.
Thanks in advance! -

Herb:
The modified Hudson group is not a seperate club. It is more like a special interest group within the HET, like the Jet group and the Kenosha group. Burt Schultz puts out a newsletter 4 time a year and I believe they meet at the National every year.
Burt does a great job at this, but is having a hard time with articles and keeping members in the group. The members of this board would be a great help to Burt to keep the newsletter moving forward. I believe this is Burt's email (drop the X's) XXXhudsonut@streetracing.com. -
I just checked the most recent WTN club newsletter from July/Aug and it has an email for Burt of XXXhudsonnut@hotmail.com (drop the X's). Unfortunatley, I had already read and tossed my most recent Hudson Modified newsletter, but if you cant get ahold of him just drop me a private message and I will gather the info.
Good luck!
