Jon Battle asked me to post this. He is putting together something for the HET Club Website that should help and assist everyone.

Can you help us build a Hudson "links" page?
A few Hudson web folks are trying to assemble links (URL's, internet addresses) for websites or webpages dealing exclusively with Hudsons. These will eventually be posted on a webpage for the benefit of all.
Preliminary categories include:
1. Webpages posted by individuals showing their Hudson-related collections (cars, Hudsonite, dealer signs, etc.) or Hudson restorations.
2. Webpages of Hudson museums or large Hudson collections (Hostetler's, Old Spokes, Ypsilanti Heritage, etc.)
3. Reference websites seither pecializing in the history of various Hudsons or containing technical, restoration or maintenance information helpful to Hudsonites.. An example would be Sarah Young's website devoted to Jets.
4. Technical or historic websites which -- though they may include other makes -- contain a large amount of information on Hudsons.
5. Websites of vendors of parts or services exclusively for Hudsons. K-Gap, Dale Cooper, etc.
6. "Groups" or other web communities or bulletin boards especially aimed at Hudsons (such as the Yahoo Super Six or Hudson Eight groups).
7. Websites of other Hudson clubs (not chapters of the HET) such as Svenska Hudsonklubben, the Hudson-AMC Car Club of Australia, the New Zealand Hudson Essex Terraplane Club and the Railton Owner's Club.
8. Additional categories! Suggest one and give us a website that belongs there.
NOTE: there already exists an HET webpage with links to the home pages of various HET chapters. It's at -
http://hetclub.org/index.php?option=com_wrapper&view=wrapper&Itemid=517
Please go there and verify that we link to your chapter's current website, and advise us immediately if there is a problem!
If you have link suggestions or questions please contact me, Jon Battle, at detailed@verizon.net.
Yup, It came out as a long post/thread. Essentially, if you have a HET Related link, name (individual or company), etc., for parts, services or information, please send it on to Jon Battle.
If it is a reference for parts or services, please include a short description of product or services, etc., provided..

I have a website of HET pics taken over the last 50 years at:
http://picasaweb.google.com/oldhudsons/PeteSHudsonPics
The link to the New Club on the HET Club's list at: www.hetclub.org/index.php?option=com_wrapper...w=wrapper&Itemid=517
does not work or "click through" & gives a "url not on this server" message & a separate "404 error" message.
It should link to

Thanks for sharing your 50 years of Hudson, Essex, Terraplane picture collection. It helps me recognize pre 40s models.

TY for the nice compliment.
I've come to find the pre-war era far more interesting as offered so many different models, even in the same year, with more diverse body styles, and of course as a collector, far more rare.
