FOR SALE

HUDSON KEY RING - I have a key ring from a north London Hudson and Essex specialist. This is original from probably just before or just after the war. The key ring is about 1.5 inches across and if anyone is interested, they can contact me. It’s in good condition and all lettering is clear. I believe it’s quite rare and would prefer it to go to someone who would appreciate it.

I love my Hudson, just cant keep it. It's been sitting in my garage for a really long time and I keep thinking I will have funds/time to fix it up right. Been too long now. Figure $800 will get it out of my garage.

1953 Hudson Hornet sedan - Needs complete restoration.

I drove this car until I blew the motor. Stripped it down with the intention of doing a total restoration. The economy conspired against me. Need to sell it now.

There is no engine or transmission. Suspension and steering are in decent shape. Rolls fine. Rear end was rebuilt a while back. Wide 255 series bfg tires in back. Silvertown radial wide whitewalls in front. The rusty looking interior of the roof is just surface scale and old glue from headliner. The roof is straight and sound. There is a hole through the passengers side floorboard. Needs a small patch panel. The drivers side fender got munged, however a nice straight replacement fender is included. Dash and gauges are there. As far as I know they should work. Ask if you have questions.

Local pickup in Santa Barbara CA is preferred. Will have to be towed/trailered. If you want to ship it, Ill try to be as helpful as I can but it's really up to you. (2/10) mrkramer610@hotmail.com
