Well, yesterday I put my money where my mouth is and attended a car show right in front of the Queen Mary in Long Beach. Ofcourse I was the only Hudson and a 1951 Hornet Coupe with "DOC HDSN" license plates won me a big "Best Special Interest" trophy. This was the first time both my 12 and 10 year old kids had been to a show where I actuallly participated. When my trophy was announced, my 10 year old went to the podium and picked it up with a big grin. I just may have gotten them hooked.....
P.S.- Everyone loves the big red aircleaners!

Congrats! Glad to hear that. Going to a local show later this month and I think I will be the only Hudson there
Great! If we keep at it, more and more Hudson products will be out there. Way to go! Nice touch with your son...bet he was thrilled...:rolleyes:

My Hornet won a 4ft high trophy for People's Choice at this show. Against a pristine chromed mirrored (former, lol)friend's 51 Merc too.
