|
|
| Saw a great one today! The same guy that owns the Railton and 14-15 other Hudsons showed his 34 (Briggs Bodied) Boat-tail Roadster at a local (300 car) show. No picture yet, but I'll get some. It's two-tone beige and burnt orange, 4 headlight (2 fixed and 2 wheel tracking) Nickel plated hood side doors, He claims that 30 or so were built, and two are known to still exist. It's an AACA Grand National Champion, and he tours it all over the Southeast US. What a beautiful ride! I wonder if this guy and his wife will adopt me?

Whoa, that was some wild stuff back in the day. Trippe brand driving lights were fairly common on higher end cars back then. So much for Lexus and their articulating headlight innovation. Yes, please, let's see pictures of the car and your new parents. LOL

| I take it back, it's not a 34, it's a 31. Still no pictures. I'll try and get over there this weekend. "Hi Mommie and Daddy! I'm home!"

In lieu of pics, we'll accept a nice crayon drawing.
