For a ten-year-old car-crazed youth, our 1962 family visit to the Canadian National Exhibition in Toronto was an automotive revelation. While they clearly were based on the American models with which we were familiar, they still were so unique and different.

(craigslist.org) Seller's Description: Hudson is known for their aerodynamic Hornet coupes that dominated the early days of stock car racing on the beach at Daytona, so the collecting world isn’t that familiar with this compact entry that competed with Nash, Rambler and Henry J.

Clean and clear VA title.Distinctive, handsome and stylish, this sporty 2-door looks classically fifties in 2-tone Red and White. Until folks see the Hudson badging, they will be asking you stoplight and gas station questions about your Jet-Liner Club Sedan. In ‘54 it was the upscale version of the Super Jet with standard features that were normally offered as options. Continental spare tire kit, fender skirts and deluxe chrome trim add class with a nod to the luxurious land yachts of the day.Compact doesn’t mean a lack of room in this very inviting interior. It is thoughtfully designed and carries through with the 2-tone Red and White theme. The dash and instrument panel are very attractive with just the right amount of chrome trim used throughout. The large steering wheel is a work of art with a very distinctive chrome horn ring and classic Hudson logo at the center. Visibility is excellent and that very attractive hood ornament keeps you on target.Plenty of power and 20 mpg from this L-head Straight Six with Twin-H-Power dual carbs. It’s not a torque monster, but 202 cubic inches and 114 horsepower moves this lightweight sedan nicely through town and is easy to maneuver. The GM Hydramatic 3-speed automatic transmission shifts smoothly through the gears. Semi-floating rear axles, hydraulic drum brakes and shocks, coil springs and unequal length A-arms provide safety and handling.

The Jet 202 ci L-head six does have a dubious distinction of being the last L-head six-cylinder engine designed, tooled and produced for use in an American passenger car.

The prominent reverse-angle roof line wasn't aesthetically everyone's cup-of-tea but had a definite sales motivation driving its initiation. Mercury, which had experienced increasing sales volumes through the postwar period up to 1955, as generally did its other medium-priced competitors, all experienced the rather sudden contraction of the segment though 1960. Reasons attributed to this sea change were discontent with burgeoning size, lavish, outlandish styling, poor build quality, offset by rising interest in compacts and imports abetted by the Eisenhower recession. At Ford, Robert McNamera was president, cited the money losing Mercury-Edsel-Lincoln Division (MEL) as target for significant cutbacks in expenditures. With Edsel dismissed, and Lincoln directed onto a consolidated model line that would eventually yield success, Mercury too was to be reined in. The method selected was to return Mercury to share the Ford platform albeit with mostly its own identifiable styling. The results weren't quite distinctive enough, recognizably a glamorous Ford again. This reconfiguration didn't set off any 1961-'62 sale boon but did cause Mercury dealers to give district sales personnel feedback that buyers recognized the Mercury wasn't much more than a restyled Ford. Not much could be done until the next major restyle for 1965. But the top could be modified without major expense, so stylist reached into their bag of already used tricks to come up with the reverse-angle 'breezeway' feature last used on the 1960 Lincoln Continental Mark V's. Unlike every other FoMoCo body style, the 'breezeway' top was exclusively limited for Mercury's use. Along with greater differentiation from Ford styling, proved to be popular with Mercury buyers, primarily the four door sedan models, Since the roof shell was utilized by both two and four door models, it comes off a bit awkward on the two door with the large quarter windows. When the all-new 1965 Mercurys were developed, all breezeway models were four door sedans only since the two-door fastback was the current trend. Even the four-door hardtop shared its body with the new Ford semi-formal style. The severely rectilinear 1965-'66 Mercury styling complimented the reverse-angle breezeway. That would change for 1967 when Mercury was given the softer, coke-bottle quarters which would clash with the angular. A breezeway power backlight was a catalog option for 1967-'68 four door sedans with their coved rear windows, but it only retracts two inches under the shadow of the upper edge. Make an astute observation, get a dissertation. Steve

(craigslist.org) Seller's Description: 1963 Imperial convertible, a barn find, except instead of a barn, in has been in storage containers and in public storage for about the last 25 – 30 years. It has been under a roof for much of its life. It is a rare car, one of 531 Imperial convertibles Chrysler built in 1963. It has a 413 cu. in. engine, a push-button transmission, air conditioning, electric windows and power seat.The odometer shows 75,145 miles, which I believe is accurate. The car is not running. The engine does not turn over with the starter. I have not tried to rotate it with a bar and socket. Some wheels didn’t turn when it was moved to its current location, probably because the brake cylinders are frozen, which is not a difficult repair. The body is O.K. There are some bondo bubbles around the rear wheel wells from a poorly done paint job back in the 1970’s. Paint has peeled off the hood. The pictures show the car as it sits. I did wipe off the hood for one shot, but nothing has been cleaned or polished otherwise.The metallic red interior is all original and quite nice. The dash pad, steering wheel, door panels and other items that are often in bad condition in older cars are very good. The leather seats are good for their age also.I have a number of parts for the car, e.g. a grille in very nice condition, a rear bumper, some chrome trim and other things that will be rediscovered as I clean up the garage and basement.Without too much work, the car could be restored to prize-winning condition. I was going to do it, but I have gotten to be too old. Contact: no phone listed.
