i see you are determined to **** up a unique example of vintage backyard hot-rodding at its best. you're going to run the '32 grille shell i suppose? are you leaving off the fenders too? why didn't you spend the money on buying a Brookeville roadster instead? that's what you're turning that car into. generic. you are an idiot.
First reason is, we don´t like that original style. Second reason is Finnish law. Our law is ****ing unbeliveable. first i must buy that roadster, then i delivered that in finland, then i make it what looks good. In this moment it come to costs about 15K euros. Then i going to registered it. Vehicle inspection man says, Hey you have a new car and give me tax invoices. this time i need money about 25K euros. Only one thing i forget, here is not possible to registered self maked car because it have to be EU type acceptance and that need some crash tests etc. I hope now you understand why i not buy a new brookville roadster. BTW, if you want i can sell that hudson fenders and mask. Then you can make your own Hudson. P.S Only Hudson parts what that car include when we buy it, was convertible body. Ch***is frame was 42-46 Chevy pick-up, front axle was 42-46 chevy truck, rear axle was ford truck, fender is maked from 42-46 chevy truck, Interior was self make etc.
Very nice and very rare even in the U.S. I would have a hard time leaving it alone also. My next project will be a Hudson parasite digger with a blown Hudson stroked 308 flat head six. Just keep in mind the more you take that car apart the more it will go down in value to the public (maybe not to you) either way it is a cool car. Hud

Let´s refresh this. Here is how it looks now. I not owner anymore, but my brother do it finish him self. http://rides.webshots.com/photo/2951664250057921368GGijmZ?vhost=rides
I think it came out great, but i liked the look of it before you changed it It had a style of it's own and i have never seen another car like it, now it just looks like every other 60's style roadster you find in the US, just a different color scheme. not to be on such a negative tip... It looks cool today, but it was a very "unique" vehicle before it's final make over from one decade to the next. Where did the grill and the art deco hood end up at and do you still have them? all in all, great lookin car, enjoy it
Owner of the the Hudson still has the fenders, hood etc. stored and untouched. I just visited the owner two days ago.
