mikewest Posted November 27, 2016 Share Posted November 27, 2016 David, A buddy of mine just completed this 1910 Hudson from less than you are selling. I think your offering is a BARGAIN. Walt G should jump on this opportunity ..... If I wasn't banged up Id be interested myself. Merry Christmas sir! Mike West PS I wish this 10 Simplex was in my garage!

Neil G Posted November 27, 2016 Author Share Posted November 27, 2016 (edited) Just an FYI, I'm looking for a chassis for this body, not building a speedster http://www.coachbuilt.com/bui/b/belmore_macdougall_moores/belmore_macdougall_moores.htm Edited November 28, 2016 by Neil G add pic (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikewest Posted November 27, 2016 Share Posted November 27, 2016 Neil READ THE EMAIL DAVE COCO is offering you a chassis only. I responded to him, not you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil G Posted November 27, 2016 Author Share Posted November 27, 2016 (edited) No need to yell Mike, it was just info for people that might be curious, I wasn't responding to you either Edited November 28, 2016 by Neil G add (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trimacar Posted November 27, 2016 Share Posted November 27, 2016 One interesting thing on this body, it need's "question mark" fenders to match the body. Great project, wish I'd been a little closer to the body, what an interesting combo! Yes, my assemblage of parts would make a great speedster, was originally a 1910 Model 20 Fore Door roadster, of which, at this point in time and to everyone's knowledge, none other exist...

Restorer32 Posted November 28, 2016 Share Posted November 28, 2016 Dang, would I ever like to work on that project! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alsfarms Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 Neil, Good luck on your future project. What a nice start for the body and a true early custom. Does anyone know who now owns the Simplex speedster shown above? Al Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben Popadak Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 http://www.desertclassics.com/antique2.html I believe on another website you said this manufacturer made a body for a Chalmers. Your Chalmers chassis is back at the old place. oldnrusty1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trimacar Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 By the way, since the Hudson I have was a fore door roadster, it's on the 110 inch wheelbase, same as a Model 20 touring, not the 100 inch of the small runabout roadster that was made....

gossp Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 That is a stunning body! I only wish I had enough Maxwell spares to see it become a 30 horse Maxwell. Long before my fathers project became my project we talked about multiple bodies for it.... I have now seen the one I want most! Good luck and best wishes on the project. Please keep us posted.

Neil G Posted December 8, 2016 Author Share Posted December 8, 2016 Great news, David and I have sealed the deal on the Hudson chassis, the measurements of the body and chassis are the closest thing to an exact match possible. I'm looking forward to starting the project this spring, will be looking for lots of parts. I have an excellent set of Solar sidelights and taillight, looking for matching headlights. also need a Warner Auto-Meter preferably with a clock mount, I have the clock already. Thanks to all who commented and a huge thank you to David Coco! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trimacar Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 I'm tickled that this Hudson project is going to a great home! We were both sort of amazed how closely the measurements frame vs. body are, appears, as mentioned, to be almost an exact match. If I were 20 years younger, I'd probably have kept the Hudson, but right now fairly sure I wouldn't get to it in this lifetime, with other projects I'm working on. So, again, a good home for it! Plus, it gets to keep being around Pierce Arrows, which is always a good thing!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikewest Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 Hi David, I knew this was a match made to be. Glad Neil G was able to see it! Have a great Christmas ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trimacar Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 Years ago, there was an ad for a Sears Motorbuggy for sale in Mississippi. Behind the Sears, I could see the radiator of the Hudson. I made a deal for it, flew to Jackson, and my brother and I retrieved it from an old shed where it had been for a while. My brother lived 10 miles away from where the car was sitting! We got it loaded on a commercial car carrier, I flew back to Winchester, and met the same driver to unload. With the dimension match, I think it was just fate that a body showed up, as that was the lacking thing..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
