Jon Cole Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 Found a few Hudson ads on Hemmings, not all Hornets, but enough to help build the kit... http://www.hemmings.com/classifieds/carsforsale/hudson/hornet/1263414.html BTW, does the Moebius kit represent the 7X "NASCAR" engine?

Chuck Most Posted January 1, 2012 Share Posted January 1, 2012 BTW, does the Moebius kit represent the 7X "NASCAR" engine? Yes, but the 7X was the production engine. It wasn't done specifically for NASCAR. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Art Anderson Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 Yes, but the 7X was the production engine. It wasn't done specifically for NASCAR. Essentially, the 7X IS the Nascar engine, Chuck. With the exception of the aluminum high-compression cylinder head, all other 7X components were internal--and NASCAR was pretty stringent about enforcing their rules regarding the use of only factory-available parts (and those parts had to be available both over-the-counter, and in production engines as well. Hudson had a reputation for fairly high-performance cars since the 1920's, and certainly in the 30's behind the Terraplane. That continued after WW-II as well.
