This car is a pretty badly rusted in the frame rails and cross members. Side rails under rockers look completely shot. The BIN is a dream. Seller must not know much about Hudson bodies.

This guy again. He'll die before anyone (in the know) pays that kind of money for this car. Overpriced, just like his other auctions.

| Every pile of rust he has is incredibly valuable. Pay his insane prices, or he will gleefully crush them, they are all easy rebuild jobs. What's your problem?

I say we gleefully crush him. Then, maybe his heirs will price things more realistically...like in the $50.00+ dollar range.

Don't crush wait for a stiff breeze. The frame rails on the driver side are non existent. Crazy.

Frame rails, what frame rails? The seller says the car is unibody and has no frame. How true that is now.

what a POS.
we cut up cars that were nicer than this. ( I say that all the time)
sad, this coupe could be fixed, by someone that has the time and stock in Miller, or Lincoln, but you will need to do everything on this one. Hudsondad said he doesn't want to spend two years welding on a coupe, and that includes one for me. The only way this one would be worth saving, is to either find a 4 door, and transplant the coupe shell, or if it were a convertible, then it would be worth saving.

You said it. Way too much work for me.
