Pix of Hudson cars

A 1949 model, top left



At left is a 1953 Hudson Hornet.

Come to think about it, maybe it was a Hornet. Whichever it was. the car was brand new in 1949 when they took me as a one-year-old to visit relatives in Wyoming. In winter.

Time to grow a thumbnail = 6 months

Finally I have cut the last piece of my squashed thumbnail off. I shut the tip of my thumb in the car door (SVT Focus) Thanksgiving week. It was purple a long time. It's also been a long time since I've done that.

Last time it was in my aunt & uncle's car--a 1949 Hudson Commodore--and I was a toddler. It looked like this, black also.
