Aussie D25 Posted January 24, 2011 Report Posted January 24, 2011 (edited) All there... fenders, interior spare gear box. Stored in a shed on a farm in the central west so zero serious rust... no dents at all. Will require a bit of work obviously but the engine has good compression, the breaks are shot, the glass is all there but the rear right window is cracked. Closest I could find on offer was one all together in marginally better nick unregistered for $12,800 Still woking on the dodge , this is a bargain not a distraction.

1940plymouth Posted January 24, 2011 Report Posted January 24, 2011 Pontiac, Hudson or Terraplane? Looks solid enough, good luck with it Quote
Aussie D25 Posted January 24, 2011 Author Report Posted January 24, 2011 Pontiac' date=' Hudson or Terraplane?Looks solid enough, good luck with it[/quote'] 1937 Terraplane Was thinking of a nice off white/cream color with a light tan interior for this one. Quote
Cpt.Fred Posted January 24, 2011 Report Posted January 24, 2011 yay! nice one! and it is a bargain, that's true... Quote
falconvan Posted January 24, 2011 Report Posted January 24, 2011 Looks good except someone mounted the steering column on the wrong side! Killer deal; that'll be a nice car when it's done. Quote
Uncle-Pekka Posted January 24, 2011 Report Posted January 24, 2011 Congratulations! Hudsons are mighty cars. Including Terraplanes (what a wonderful name for a car) Really a bargain deal, too - Loads of work ahead, though. Quote
thrashingcows Posted January 24, 2011 Report Posted January 24, 2011 Those Terraplanes are one of my all time favorite cars...$1000!!! You lucky dog!! Quote
Dan Hiebert Posted January 24, 2011 Report Posted January 24, 2011 Excellent find and a good deal, to boot! You'll like the Terraplane, I've got a 1937 Terraplane sedan, too. Hudson built good cars with many cool innovations like mechanical back-up brakes, vacuum clutch, and the "electric hand". (last two were options) Alas, you are right about one thing, its also a distraction from its stablemates, but an acceptable one. Check out the Hudson-Essex-Terraplane (H-E-T) club. Good resources and they have a chapter in Australia. Quote
PatS.... Posted January 25, 2011 Report Posted January 25, 2011 Nice find...though it might need some seatcovers and a buffing Quote
louie the fly Posted January 25, 2011 Report Posted January 25, 2011 Bloke I work for has 2 of those 37's, a 6 and an 8. The 8 is slightly longer in the nose. He's kinda obsessed with them. Yes, he's been able to get good info from the Australian club. Don't have a spare back door ashtray do you? He needs one. Cheers.. Quote
