Title: 1929 Hudson grille badge image wanted.
Post by: Kiwijeff on February 08, 2015, 09:28:03 PM: Probably wrong place to ask, but you don't know till you try.
I'm needing a good resolution pic of a 29 grille badge.
I have a few images, but quality is lacking. I'm going to have this printed on fabric, and then sewin on to some seat covers I put in the Hudson.
I hate covers on any furniture, but got some red ones to give me a feel of what the interior will be like when I get upholstery done. Seat covers have a logo on them that needs to go, so figured I'd cover em with Hudson logo.
I'd also love to buy one of these badges, and missed one on eBay recently.
Here's a pic or two of what I'm talking about.

I was looking at some Essex badges the other night on eBay. Didn't seem cheep though.
I had a 28 badge made by an old fella, and its a perfect copy, but its not as exciting as the 29.
Of course Hudson and Essex badges are different, being that they were two diffrent cars.
Ive also found some brass Essex badges of a soldiers uniform for sale locally here, and thought about grabbing them for someone with an Essex, as theyre no use to me. If mine were an Essex, id use em somewhere. I think theyre for sholders, as they are curved.

I have no idea how they did it, cept that its a commercial printing place.
I will get a t shirt done as well at some stage. Probably after i buy one of the Rusty Bowtie shirts. Should do that first.
I got way to much going on, even been talking to a guy up north with a 27 Ford Roadster for sale that im keen on. Its a blank canvas, and i cant help myself, its got lots of potentual and would be a lot of fun to rebuild and make cool.
Ive got OCD, old car disease. :D
