1946 HUDSON pick up truck

Description for Other Makes deluxe 1946

An original looking "Hudson" pick up truck on the outside. but Chevrolet drivetrain/Buick tilt steering column. With a 305 V8; 2 barrel; automatic on the column; Air conditioning (unit needs a charge & produces both cool air and heat when charged; the compressor is not stuck; the blower motor for this unit does work); power steering; power brakes with front disc. Runs & drives dependably (like a truck). The new recent Dual exhaust sounds like a collector wants an old truck to sound. All new & redone underneath. with no rust (frame painted. nbsp;new parts-gas/brake lines. nbsp;etcetera done 8 years ago). Painless wiring kit used. Most lights work. New parts: Complete HEI distributor. fuel pump; plug wires. tires/rims/hubcaps; seat; carburetor; gas lines; neutral lock-out switch. etc. A new temperature gauge is installed under the dash. New "doors" roll-up glass & new felt channels are installed ( they work like new ). All the other glass & rubber seals are NEW. New wood bed & metal retainer slats. Also. new Battery. starter. driver & passenger door mirrors. A new gas tank sending unit & holding straps were installed when the gas tank was removed & cleaned (a gas gauge would be needed or the old 6 volt in dash gauge may work with some kind of resister install? That is for the next owner to do. Tank had been sealed inside; just had to clean out the old sending unit rust. Gas stabilizer & moisture inhibitor added Picture #23 shows the underside & frame with new cab floor metal. All the under parts are new like this throughout. Fender wells have no rust or dirt & all new bolts. More unerside pictures available. Needs: small ding at front splash (would be behind bumper). Parts I have with truck: front bumper & guards(need rechrome; pictures available); original seat (new owner may not want. but springs/frame/woods/hardware there); inside original rear view mirror mounting bracket. cab cardboard patterns/metal frames. nbsp;& some small miscellaneous parts. And. I have the original headliner "stretch" bows/wands assembly (think there are 5 or 6 rods/wands) for your new headliner snugging/install (this will be the new buyer's/owner's job; headliner material is not furnished). Howard 904-881-3495. The reserve is lower of course (enough to pay transport to most U. S. locations). This is Not for the Ford or Chevy man (unless the Chevy mechanicals suffices). I have a Florida title in my name. VIN plate is in place on passenger door column. No accidents. Truck has no rust; all new looking inside fender wells/bolts/splash areas. Again. custom restored 8-10 years ago with minimal usage since. I have many more pictures ( can furnish title/VIN plate pics also ). Hood & doors close flush. o rattle & no fly open. Vent windows work. A 1966 PORSCHE 912 coupe coming soon. 5% rust; original accept for fender flares.

Hopefully this will drop the watchers. waiters. and "never-to-deciders". Please don't hold your breath for lower than $20. 00. On Feb-01-15 at 06:40:04 PST. seller added the following information:Someone will buy this & leave the others in the dust. He/she/buyer will pay here on Ebay far less than what it will sell for at a Mecum Auction. where competition wouldn't give buyers weeks to decide what it is truly worth. Its not just a matter of bidding competition. but at a live in your face auction. knowledgable antique people have no hesitation in "no doubt value" placing. The real "buy-it-now" definition takes place. Are you willing to lose this to another buyer. Somewhat big or longtime classic vehicle dealers/sellers have the luxury of buying this & giving it due time for the enthusiastic/right money buyer to pay highest dollar ($30k+?). But. if one of you does not snap this up. nbsp; it is a privilege & non-burden to have this in my possession longer. It will NEVER be lower than this listing! Snooze. u lose.
