During the hey day of the Hudson the factory beginning in July 1949 started sending out Hudson Merchandisers which contained updates about the cars and sales and maintenance tips. It was amazing what they actually put in those 6-8 page pamphlets. Even tips on how to arrange the cars in your garage for the best appearance to the customer.
During my readings I found mention of a Canadian Hudson dealer in Edmonton Alberta. Healey Motors Limited. Mr. Andre Pelletier is listed as the service manager. He reports that Healey Motors was planning a Hudson training school for 20 mechanics and 6 body men.
I think Healey Motors is now Healey Ford and the down town dealership looks old enough to have been around in May 1952 when the article appeared. I hope I can find someone who remembers the Hudson days. Maybe I will get a story.
