Hey Guys..I just deleted a few posts from this string..had some concern about the negativity. Don't want this forum to become hostile like some of the other forums. As our mothers said..if you can't say anything good..don't say anything at all! Don't be surprised in the future if your post disappears!

With that said...Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.... TFoch, TheMoose and myself all appreciate you folks participating.

Thanks
Ed

There is another 250 on Craigslist asking $300....I would think those engines are worth about $100 ?

I have a 230 from a 1969 Camaro RS...(have the Camaro also)..but they belong to my son.  I bet picking up an electric ignition conversion can't be too tough?

Who knows what this old Chev will end up as.
I considered stripping it recently, to use as parts for my 28 Speedster.

Jeff,
do you have any pictures of your 28 Speedster?

V8 guys just don't get it.  

Sorry, I can't help it. I just heard the announcer at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway say, "Gentlemen start your engines."

Well said Ed, sometimes we might pick at each other for a little fun, but to correct someone because you think they are wrong is wrong on your part. I really enjoy this sight and the people.

Appreciate the cleanup Ed, thanks.
I wanted to get stuck into this over the holidays, but finding "me" time wasn't happening.
I took to the front left fender with a hammer and dolly, but I'm no panel beater.   
Today I whipped out the torque tube and rear shocks.
Tomorrow, one of my customers is coming to give me a hand.

Tom, the Speedster is all stripped at present, but I have a build thread on the Hamb. Search my threads. I think its title is, Hop up mods for Hudson Super Six.
Just brought a 39 Hudson hood for the rear boat tail. Just got to get it down from the North Island.

Well today was big. Not much done to the 35, but we got the shop cleaned out, pushed the Chev outside, and took pics.
Went down to wreakers to borrow the engine hoist, but no luck.
I did get pic of mates Caddy.
Got covered in rubber. I had to cut a tyre off one of my Hudson wheels. Don't use a grinder to do this, its real messy, haha.

[Kiwijeff]

My poor grinder looks like its 60 years old.
Here's a couple more pics. Check out the size of the Hudson chassis.

[TFoch]

Thanks for posting the pics   Nice looking Caddy, can't be too many down there.  Now that everything is cleaned out more room to work on the Chevy

[themoose]

That is definitely one beefy looking chassis...Built to last. As Tom said,thanks for posting the pictures..Keep um coming!

Great pics! That fender doesn't look too bad. I tried cutting a tire with a sawzall once, I wound up using the angle grinder too. Very messy. I'm sure you are getting alot down down there, what's the temperature?

With a dolly and a hammer that fender can be straightened right up. At least you have something to start with.
