During my frequent scour of ebay I noticed a 1954 Hudson Hornet for sale. Ignoring the pea green / white paint the car appeared to be in relatively good condition and looked like a great project. After a few drinks that evening, the phone rang and it was my dad. We caught up on the weeks events and then I mentioned the Hornet. He hung up and went onto ebay and within a few minutes gave me a call, “the car looks pretty straight. Probably not going to find one any better then this to restore. You sure you really want to restore a Hudson?” After a few minutes of going back and forth, I asked my dad to call the next day (the car was on the east coast and it was near 7 pm west coast time). My dad really like to talk cars and figured he knew more about it then I did. I wanted to find out the price that he had the car listed for locally, and ask a few things about the condition of the car. I went to bed that night and told Nicole, “I think I might have agreed to buy a Hudson.” She was happy about it as we have been talking about restoring her a “bubble car’ for some time. Here are some postings from the ebay listing:
