neil morse Posted June 18, 2023 Share Posted June 18, 2023 This looks like a nice car at a fair price. But looking at this '47 really emphasizes just how revolutionary the step-down Hudsons were compared to what had gone before! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roysboystoys Posted June 18, 2023 Share Posted June 18, 2023 I've owned several 46/47 Commodores and many step downs. Both nice cars, but the step down is a superior road machine. The eight cylinder 46/47 with overdrive and suspension modifications can be made competitive, but not equal. The one posted here is a nice car. Looks like an update to Commodore steering wheel. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hudsonite Posted June 21, 2023 Share Posted June 21, 2023 No Overdrive with a 4:11 rear makes this a 50mph car. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hudsy Wudsy Posted June 21, 2023 Share Posted June 21, 2023 One of the things that has always bothered me about Hudsons of this vintage is the precipitous, cliff-like nature of the dashboards: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xander Wildeisen Posted June 21, 2023 Share Posted June 21, 2023 There are ways to deal with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
58L-Y8 Posted June 21, 2023 Author Share Posted June 21, 2023 Retrofitting this '47 Hudson with overdrive would be a good first objective for the next owner. Two door sedans from the 1920's to 1950's can present some proportional challenges such as quarter windows longer than the door window. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
