    Way cool theme to the old Hudson with incredible attention to detail.  These are the cars which will get people’s attention & perhaps keep our old Hudson hobby going. Thanks for sharing the video!!

    Nicely done when the budget is almost unlimited. At $100/hr shop time and probably a minimum of 1000 hours this car is near $150k invested.  Oh to be able to spend at that level!

    I’m curious as to how he replaced the speedometer with one that was driven by a circuit board.

    No relation to what this guy did...  But I've fully replaced all my gauges with my own custom electronics:

    I remember seeing the post where you showcased these gauges. These are great looking gauges.  Have you ever installed your electronic devices in a stock speedometer so as to keep it looking original?

    I'm currently revising my setup, there's no issue using the original numbers but using the original inner face is something I haven't looked at.
