C Carl Posted July 10, 2016 Share Posted July 10, 2016 Hi , Doug , I have found difficult handles from Rich , Thehandleman@comcast.net who asks that pics from several angles be sent. I don't know if you have tried him yet , or if you can supply pics. Perhaps even a close resemblance ? Good luck. - Carl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StillOutThere Posted July 14, 2016 Share Posted July 14, 2016 (edited) I see '34-35 Terraplane and Hudson (same) trunk handles on ebay about every other week it seems. Rumble handle is also same of course. You should have no trouble finding. Come visit us Terraplane owners on "Terraplane SEVEN" on Facebook some time. My '34 T conv. coupe attached.

ROUSHGT Posted July 15, 2016 Author Share Posted July 15, 2016 Wow, your car is a beauty! Any idea of how many were produced and remain on the road today? I have created an ebay search that will notify me when one is posted for sale. Regards, Doug 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StillOutThere Posted July 30, 2016 Share Posted July 30, 2016 Thanks RoushGT. Hudson did not keep production records other than serial number start /end and prewar nothing about body style. We know of about 12-15 true US built '34 Terraplane converts today on the planet that are still Terraplanes and not moved over on to 8 cylinder Hudson chassis to maximize their value. Come visit us owners over at "Terraplane SEVEN" page on Facebook as any car we know of for sale gets posted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ROUSHGT Posted August 22, 2016 Author Share Posted August 22, 2016 (edited) Stilloutthere, You were absolutely correct in telling me to watch ebay listings for my trunk handle I need. I got the one that listed last week for the posted selling price of $40 us$ which will do me fine until I find my misplaced re-chromed one. This must be my lucky month as I have 3 first place awards in the last 3 shows and won the bid for the missing trunk handle.

ROUSHGT Posted August 22, 2016 Author Share Posted August 22, 2016 Here is a pic of my friends 1934 Terraplane Coupe that he parked 14 years ago in his barn. I finally convinced him to get it out and do some " Terraplaneing " with me as time is marching on. After prepping the motor for start up with a new fuel pump, fresh gas, and some Hudsonite , it started right up. Enjoy Doug 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always wonder why folks post for wanted items but do not add photos. Loose parts rarely have identification tags. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
