    Hudson wagon at the 2007 HET Nationals meet in Auburn, IN. There was never one built! This is a build that was inspired from a book on Hudsons.

    Why not? It's never too late for building retro prototypes :)

    Looks good enough to me... Ready for a cruise down Route 66... Well, it might need one of those "in the window swamp coolers, to complete the picture... :yup:

    That design sure lends itself to the wagon style! Better than most of the factory wagons of the era for sure. That is simply stunning.
