TerryB Posted May 24 Share Posted May 24 Not sure the license plate with the letters PEUU is helpful when selling, might give the potential buyer the wrong message 😀. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I reacted the same way. I grossly dislike these Hudsons anyway. It looks like a raspberry creamsicle. Reminds me of the Chevy Nova debacle. When they tried to sell them in Mexico, the geniuses at GM failed to realized the "No va" in Spanish means "Won't go."

auburnseeker Posted May 25 Share Posted May 25 Looks pretty clean for the price. Is it original paint? Almost looks like it when you look close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supercub Posted May 25 Share Posted May 25 Some areas have been resprayed by the previous owner but the white areas, the hood and front fenders look like original paint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The 55er Posted May 25 Share Posted May 25 If you look at the 6th picture showing the left front tire and fender wheelwell, I can't believe that's a factory finish with all the dullness & orange peel that's in the paint. The shape of the crown isn't consistent either. IMO a repair was done there sometime in the past. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
