Anybody do theirs latley? Don't think I'll have mine on the road by winter, gettin' hitched between now an then, so wantin' to get her sealed up before, as she'll have to winter outside. I found this on the web: http://members.aol.com/sanjuana/Images/HudsonSwapsManual.pdf used it to match a couple of pieces from JC Whitney http://www.jcwhitney.com/autoparts/...Id-100000172896/Pr-p_CATENTRY_ID:100000172896 http://www.jcwhitney.com/autoparts/...Id-100000172884/Pr-p_CATENTRY_ID:100000172884 and ordered some window channel set rubber (or something like that) from K-Pak. Anybody used any of this (will it work?), or something else? -HL
Looks like it to me, too, that's what I'm wonderin'. Seen something like it priced $40 an up for 6' for official "Hudson" window channel (what ever the hell that would be). Mine are just skeletal remains of window channel. This looks the same to me (got samples on the way to check) and would much rather spend $60 rather than $120+ if at all possible. That's why I'm askin'. (That and post the Hudson swap PDF) -HL
Dad has that in a binder at home somewhere, but an online version of the swaps manual is golden. Thanks!
I stumbled across that a couple a days ago, hadn't seen it an' thought it was pretty cool. Glad to share. -HL
I just did the wind shields and rear window on my 46'. The stuff from K-PAK is good quality. I'll be doing the stepdown before winter also. Thanks for the info. Joe
Greetings from Colorado! Thanks for the link to the .PDF file. What a resource! What/who is K-PAK? Looking for parts for my '51 Hudson Hornet... Thanks! George T
I'm thinkin' it K-Gap, or that's who I ordered from. They only cover Hudson. I got some pretty nice window track gasket from 'em. They mainly deal in rubber stuff like gaskets & seals but they do have some other odds an ends. They don't have an internet site, email or mess with credit cards (checks, money orders or COD's. So call or write 'em for a catalog. K-Gap Box 3065 Santa Fe Springs, CA 90670 (714) 523-0403 I think this is still a good address an phone, but it's off a '97 catalog, my new one is at work. -HL
Greetings from Colorado. Thanks for the reply. I was thinking that it might be K-Gap, but wanted to check. Any possible lead for stepdown parts needs to be followed up!. K-gap is under new ownership [Dany & Kaylene Spring] and will be opening up a website in the new future at www.kgap.com . Recent contact information: phone 760-868-2284 email KGAPHET@aol.com Thanks again for the response! George T
