1947 Hudson Super Six 392 HEMI Restoration Project
You don't see many of these around! Schwartz Performance customer found this 1947 Hudson Super Six in a Hemmings ad. It turned out to be just 1 town over, so Schwartz Performance went and picked it up! It had sat in a guy's back yard for at least 20 years, accumulating a lot of rust in the floorpan. Once Schwartz Performance had the body chemically stripped, it was amazing how perfect the rest of the sheet metal was from the doors up! These cars were built with thick steel. Hudson Motor Car Company began vehicle production in 1909, and ended up merging with Nash to form American Motors (AMC). Although nearly 50,000 Super Six's were built in '47, not many remain. So it was up to Schwartz Performance craftsmen to custom build parts that were needed, as there aren't many parts available on the market.
