Is the car a Hudson?

Mickey's right--Hudson Hornet. A big heavy car with a surprising turn of speed. Hey Hudsonman, there ya go! Roy

What's wrong with the pants? Pretty damn cool!
When you check out the Super-TL its worth laying black wool over the light seals - they'll probably need replacing. Other than that its a great camera (and the ST605).

Definitely a Hudson!!! A fine automobile! 1948-1950 ...I think too early to be a Hornet as they came out in 1951. So probably a Commodore or a Pacemaker. but a fine design and quality car, in any event!
Argoflex---some nice cameras there too!
thanks for sharing Bob
