John_S_in_Penna Posted March 3, 2022 Share Posted March 3, 2022 "Needs some TLC," the seller says. Doesn't even a perfect car need tender loving care? What a euphemism! He should be straightforward and write "Tender loving repair!" It does look like a promising example, and thank you for sharing this find. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supercub Posted March 4, 2022 Share Posted March 4, 2022 It looks pretty good. I would like to find some 6.70-15 tires for my 55. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, there was a thread recently about old car phrases we hate...and "needs TLC" has to be one of the worst. Car looks nice, but buyers want to know what the problems are. The Hudson needs some T.L.C. and its seller needs some H.O.N.E.S.T.Y. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The 55er Posted March 5, 2022 Share Posted March 5, 2022 Shouldn't there be some kind of a metal cover over the spare tire? It's looking a little bald back there. Maybe that's part of the TLC that's required. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supercub Posted March 7, 2022 Share Posted March 7, 2022 Typically an aluminum ring on externally mounted spares. It may be in the trunk or got misplaced somehow, someone "fell out of love" with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
