Your car rocks big time. Its cool to see a major magizine making the effort to do a story on it and get the story right the first time. I figured that Rod & Custom would do a Hudson article before Hot Rod would do another one. I even fired off a email to Steve Magenta about it and thought you would want to see (I don't think they would print it):
"Hey guys, its about time that you did another article on the Hudsons.
Wasn't the last one the July 1965 issue, "Return of the Hudson"?
Good job. Danny's Hudson it totally bad and his collection is cool.
I bet the Chevy readers that support you will hate it to no end!
That's why I bought mine, to kick ass on the drag strip. Maybe next
year you will see it at IRP making waves on the 1/4 mile.

I've seen your pictures on the HET picture site. I thought it was cool that you left the old paint on the car. Something with this kinda of history deserves to be at the track battling it out with the young punks.
One question for you, I know that you do sell some Hudson items but do you have a Clifford head you would sell? I havn't been able to locate one for my 56 Hornet engine. I am running a 262 cast iron head now but want to raise the compression some more. Once I get my 50 Pacemaker coupe done I will post some pictures here.
Thanks,
Ralph Alden
