If I had the 30" DuMont, I'd pay the utilities for it!

Holy S....!

That 30" wheel is freaking enourmous, and just plain comical.

Yeah, that's the one. Do you still have that '58 Fury? I would love to see it and even more, love to take a ride in it.

Of course...

It's stored, all pickled, all fluids changed, all waxed, and covered in a fleece car cover. She looks the same...just about perfect.

I had a '57 Plymouth Plaza, nothing like your Fury and not a fond memory. Here's a shot of my pride and joy. I had it for over 40 wonderful years.

It looks terrific. But what make is it? It looks circa 1949-50?

Correct - and it's a 1951 Hudson Hornet with a 2-barrel carburetor. 1951 was the first year for the Hornet series and the car was quite early in production with a serial number of 9518. Twin-H Power (which featured two 1-barrel carbs) didn't become an option until 1952. I had a '53 Hornet with Twin-H Power when I first acquired the '51 in the picture. The '51 would blow the doors off of the '53. But the dual carbs sure were horny looking!

Those Hudsons were nice cars. I've seen two in person one I'm sure was a Hornet. It was parked at a restraunt and I got a good look at it, that one looked like brand new.

I got to sit in the other one, but I can't for the life of me remember if that one was a Hornet or a different model.

Ever refer to yours as the Green Hornet?
