This is Highway 61's excellent convertible model of the sleek '52 Hudson Hornet with Twin H-Power.

Hi Mike, with that boat anchor tail how did that Hudson handle the hwy into Palm Springs?

BTW, do you think that's the same hwy from the Mad, Mad World movie ?

The gal at the wheel said it handled just fine ! And that bend in the road is within a few yards of where Smiler Grogan went flying off the road.

Nice pic John ! IMO though, the yellow wheels look just a bit toy like. How bout a black wash ?

Great pictures Mike.

It is really a great model due to its history... This is highly desirable model for all collectors.. And of course it is one of Steve McQueen's collection model...
Awesome pics...

Gorgeous car, the good news, the butt wart can be surgically removed.

Nah, I'd never remove it from this Hudson. I also have a cream H61 '52 Hudson convertible version without the continental kit. Both Hudson drop tops look great just as they are.
