TMU 308ci Inline-Six Four-Speed Automatic Transmission Brown Paint Green Vinyl & Cloth Upholstery Fender-Mounted Mirrors Weather Eye Air Conditioning
This 1955 Hudson Hornet sedan is one of 5,357 examples produced for the model year with power from a 308ci flathead inline-six.
It was purchased by the seller’s great-grandfather approximately 30 years ago, and was last registered in 2009 before it was placed into storage.
The car is finished in brown over green vinyl and cloth upholstery, and it is equipped with a four-speed Hydra-Matic automatic transmission, fender-mounted mirrors, and Weather Eye air conditioning.
The seller notes that the car will not start due to rust in the engine, and that service will be required prior to use.
This Hudson Hornet project is now offered by the seller on behalf of his great-grandfather with a period photo of the car and a Texas title.
The Hudson Motor Car Company and Nash-Kelvinator merged in 1954 and became the American Motors Corporation.
