      @mrs abe tbh sticker printing is very easy, or for a better finish they could make the stencil to paint on.
      I guess after they poured in soo much effort to the car, they kindda wanted to keep it like a normal car than totally cartoon-ish.

    Coolest looking Hudson ever! I remember when that car was new. They were always considered an old man's car. Even when they won a lot of NASCAR races it wasn't very well known. Love the way they did it! Everybody did a chopped '49 or '50 Merc but never saw one of these. As far as the Bondo, all good paint jobs use a very thin coat to smooth out the body panels. It's probably not more than a 16th of an inch thick at most. I wish they would have shown more of the finished car though with the interior and everything. The trouble with doing these for a tv show means they have to have it "finished" in a certain period of time.

      @scorchedscourge2257 Před 2 měsíci

      theres probably a reason they DIDNT do that. I would know because I own a hudson. Sourcing parts for a Hudson is damn near impossible as the manufacturer, Hudson Motor Car Company, was bought by AMC not long after those Hornets rolled off the assembly line, plus idk about back then but i know now that aftermarket parts are usually made based off of demand, if theres no demand, then they wont make the parts. back to the car though, finding a 308 ci hudson straight 6 with the dual carb twin H power air cleaners AND a 4 speed hydromatic will be nearly impossible, harder than finding individual parts for those cars, atleast without having to buy another fully restored hudson and ripping THOSE parts off just to throw them into another car

      @Adrian Vegas I know what your saying, and agree that it's not a factory Hornet... It's a restomod. When restomods are done well, I'm not opposed to them. It's a second life for an old car that would more then likely end up as scrap going to China. There are plenty of 100% factory correct cars though.

    Man I've been looking for a 10-minute restoration of a Hudson Hornet for a while! Kind of disappointed that I ended up with an 11-minute resto instead... Even though I'm bummed by that I guess it was a good video

      Absolutely. The audacity of these people to advertise a ten minute video with a full freaking eleven minutes of content... I just, can't believe it.
