1953 Hudson
Offered here is a 1953 Hudson Jet, a seldom seen automobile. The Hudson Jet was unveiled in December 1952 at the Hotel Aster in New York city. They were produced for only two years. They are a good car, yet the cost of developing and marketing this car led to the company\'s torpedo demise. This car was meant to closely mimic the 1953 Ford and it did.
Fact: When I drive the Hudson Jet more often than not on-lookers think it is a Ford. The crowd and the positive comments are a lot of fun. Some even insist it is a Ford. What fun to have a car few have seen.
This is a dependable motor car that will take you where you want to go at highway speeds. It starts instantly, every time. There is no shimmy or shake or pull to either side. I know of no mechanical issues. The brakes and clutch function properly. The engine is as quiet as a mouse. It idles perfectly. There is no smoke even on startup. Park it in your garage, there are no leaks. I park it on a carpeted floor in my showroom. Drive at night, the headlights, tail lights, turn signals and even the license plate light works.
Our photo gallery will show you supporting documents for the mechanical upgrades:
Complete carb rebuild
New points, condenser, and resistor
New coil
New fuel pump
New battery and intake manifold
This is not a do-not-touch trailer queen, no fun, can\'t sleep at night \'car.\' There are too many of those already. This car is meant to enjoy just the way it is; ready for the road. Park it next to an expensive classic and you will see who gets all the looks and crowds. It is finished in satin black with stunning, nice painted lettering down the sides, top and front. The hood is also nicely dressed, the “Stop Police” sure gets the comments. The red wheels with wide white walls add and complete the car. A statement for sure. No attempt was made to restore this car, every effort was made to make it fit mechanically. It has been just that.The whole car is fashioned to draw one to a really unique automobile that no one else has, not even close. The interior is well worn and stained, adding to the mystery and history as this is part of the glamor that strikes us as awe inspiring. Visit the photo gallery and note the high fashion seats, one in blue and one in red. The dash is especially nice with clear gauges and original finish. Even the glove box is clean, showing close to new. Both the speedometer and odometer work. Wear your fancy clothes, as the interior is clean and presentable.Regarding the comments about the mechanics of the car - open the hood and you will find a perfectly detailed engine and engine compartment. It is original - right down to the air cleaner. So many car guys and gals find this is the place to show off their car. Show this one with pride. Nothing is cobbled up or missing. Everything is in place. Even with the hood open, the engine is whisper quiet.I was tempted, but chose not to call this one a \"rat rod.\" Call it what you like as it is in a category of its own. A true, reasonably priced, one only automobile. I have the title in hand ready for immediate transfer. The new owner will receive a framed poster along with the car.
