I love it as well.

One tip- keep in mind for future builds, foil the trim pieces molded to the glass on the windsheild and back window. It's a minor touch, but it does make a difference.

Cool Hudson, that paintjob is nice. Very shiny and it looks smooth too. Great job on it. Overall look is great and I can find only one mistake from it. That's those air cleaners. You've painted them red, as they are in real car, but those air cleaners inside those air cleaner bottles were black with some silver mesh... But nice Hudson anyway.

Beautiful Hudson. I love all the detail you have done. I also, love the background you used. Great Job!!

[Danno]

Der sieht Klasse, wesentlich besser als das Modell was in einer deutschen Modellbauzeitung veröffentlicht wurde.

Sorry guys, great looking model

That is easily the nicest build up I have seen of the Hudson. Nicely done.

I was looking at this kit on the Moebius website, wondering what it looks like built-up. Now I know.

Awesome! Some really nice detail work there, my friend. Really good job.

Fantastic looking Hudson. I just hope the one I am doing looks half as nice as yours! Nice choice of colors too.

Thanks buddies for all kind words! Thank you very much - also:

Dankeschön an Michael und Andy für Euer Lob

The kit was itching me so much in the fingers, to build it, that it only took a month to finish.

Real nice job now I have to get one.By the way what kind of wiring did you use for your alternater and starter?

Sorry for late respond, I used a simple cable (thickness about 0,5mm) and branched wires to the appropriate places on and twirled it "cable for cable." :

A little tweaking.

To finish some black paint and glued it to the parts:
