Sunday

Sunday morning things are pretty quiet - but we found the hudson museum was open. It was on the list of possible sights to see - but neither of us had been really interested... luckily we stumbled across it as we headed out and found it was open and decided to visit.



There were a lot of hudsons. All well displayed, chronologically, in a bright imaculate room - each car had a placard describing the model, the specs, its cost, what made it unique as well contextual information about the history of the time. Occasionally details about the history of the car that was on display and its own history.



that funky windshield was on a speedster - i forget the top speed but it seemed really fast for the time!

These spots were in addition to the headlights - the chrome work and details were impressive.







the simplicity of some of these cars was striking - and since so much of the functional components were exposed it was fascinating to see how they were both functional and designed to be visually appealing.


Check out the details in this supercharger on a really early hudson

And the engine its supplying.
