I really like the 33-34 model year of Hudson. They really do look totally gangster. Would own one of these. Also like the brake update done on this car. Much safer to drive.

I agree, converting to hydraulic brakes is not a bad good idea. However, mechanical brakes worked fine when maintained.
Didn't Gardner and Vauxhall use the Griffin as a hood ornament? Really don't remember seeing one on a Hudson.
Dubious jumble of confused wiring dangling below dash and openings in dash for ?
I'd like to see pics of the metal repairs.
Air cleaner is MIA.
Looks like a cool car that needs a little tinkering. Sad that it hasn't been driven often...that can be a problem for some cars.

Yup Hudson also used a griffin in this era of car.
Right you are this car needs work and as such 10K is the price I think is fair. Considering you have to fix a lot of "hidden" crap.

Learn something new every day.
This car would need a good sorting out, from top to bottom, before it is driven.
