 Donald Duck and Hudson Commercial for 55

Buying a Hudson In 1955 Hudson used Donald Duck to advertise the new car lineup. The part with Donald is rather confusing but the stuff with the car is ok.

 Restoration vs Buying a Nice Hudson

Buying a Hudson You have to ask yourself why you want a to own a Hudson. There are some of us myself included that would try to rebuild a complete car if the only part you had to start with was the left rear lug nut. I like to tinker. I grew up in a garage. I started hanging out in my Dad's garage when I was six. By 12 I had rebuilt many engines and stripped down a lot of cars. So I like to work on old cars.

Not every one has the skills necessary to do the work. Don't let that deter you. Join a club like HET find owners in your area and go out, join in and learn. Then just take your time and you will find its a fun and enjoyable pastime.

If you love Hudsons and you are weighing the option of buying a nice car versus buying a fixer upper. Look at how much money and effort you want to expend. You can spend more fixing one up than you can if you just look for a nice example. There are a nice set of Wasps on ebay now and I saw a 54 Hornet go for cheap that would have been nice with a new paint job and some minor maintenance.

Always make the decision yourself and don't let people deter you. Preserving a Hudson is a noble cause, at least thats what I tell my wife. Laughing

Find a nice site (like mine,shameless plug) join, get stuck in and ask lots of questions. There is nothing a Hud owner likes more than talking about their cars. Hudsons are all about community so don't be afraid to join in.
