in HUDSON

Lots of remastered video clips with audio of  traffic in US cities 1920s - 1940s.

Plenty of Hudsons if you keep your eyes peeled.

What really strikes me is what lousy drivers a lot of them were - not to mention the kamikaze pedestrians !

    Thanks for the link!  I watched the early 60's Los Angeles film.  What a time machine!  Nice seeing the old L.A. buses and streetcars, the period autos (didn't see a Hudson, but could have missed), vintage streetlights, storefronts and gas stations (Chevron and 76 Union).  Looking forward to the others films.

    Most European 1930s cars put the lock on the passenger side, especially the French - quite understandably !
    Apologies to any present day French readers of the Forum !
