1955 HUDSON HORNET SOLD

1955 HUDSON HORNET SUPER 4DR
VERY SOLID AND COMPLETE HUDSON PROJECT CAR.

SNOWBERRY WHITE OVER PALAMINO BROWN.
THIS CAR HAS A VERY SOLID BODY AND UNDERCARRIAGE.
THE ONLY PLACE I SEE RUST IS IN THE SPARE TIRE WELL AND ON THE EDGES OF THE FRONT FLOOR NEAR THE SILL PLATE.
I DID NOT PULL UP THE FLOOR MAT. BUT I HAVE BEEN UNDER THE CAR AND EVERYTHING ELSE IS VERY SOLID.
IT HAS SOME ORIGINAL UNDERCOATING LEFT HERE AND THERE AND THE SUBFRAME IS ROCK SOLID.
RIGHT SIDE HAS A FEW DENTS, WORST ONE IN THE REAR DOOR/ROCKER.
BUT THE DOOR OPENS AND CLOSES FINE.

THE INTERIOR IS COMPLETE AND INTACT.
HAS A 'PADDED' DASH THAT IS IN GOOD UNCRACKED CONDITION.
THE DOOR PANEL BOTTOMS ARE TORN, SEAT FOAM AND CLOTH IS BRITTLE AND CRISPY. PLASTIC ARMRESTS CRACKED UP.
STEERING WHEEL PLASTIC HAS BROKEN AWAY.

ALL THE GLASS IS GOOD.
THE CHROME IS VERY NICE WITH ONLY MINOR PITTING ON THE REAR 'HORNET' EMBLEM.
BUMPERS ARE PRETTY STRAIGHT, SHINY AND IN GOOD CONDITION.
(ONLY SOME MINOR RUST/PEALING ON REAR GUARDS)

ORIGINAL 308 FLATHEAD 6CYL ENGINE WITH ALUMINUM HEAD (160HP).
MOTOR IS STUCK, BUT I HAVE IT SOAKING NOW.
PLUGS CAME OUT WITH SOME BITS OF ALUMINUM IN THE THREADS.
SO THEY MAY EVENTUALLY NEED HELICOIL INSERTS.

THIS CAR IS EQUIPPED WITH THE 3 SPEED MANUAL TRANSMISSION AND OVERDRIVE.
(SHIFTER IS 'ON THE TREE')

THE TIRES IN PICS ARE NOT INCLUDED - IT WILL HAVE 'ROLLERS' ON IT. NO HUBCAPS. NO KEYS.

THERE IS A CLEAN MN TITLE, WITH NEW PLATES AND TABS GOOD THROUGH JULY '18.
