Gone for 1955 were the step down Hudsons as Hudson and Nash merged to form American Motors and Hudsons used the same unibody construction as did Nash. All were built at the same plant.

Brooklin did a nice ‘55 Hudson in a nice two tone paint scheme, Bermuda Green/Snowberry White. (Actual car pictured is Mist Blue/Snowberry White.)  Acquiring two of these was better than having only one.

One of my favorite models. I only have 1 in this color, but I do have 4 total in my collection. If I come across another color combination, I'll consider it as well. I really like the light blue & white.

Really good-looking automobiles and Brooklin models here. Some may have dismissed the original car as a "Hash" but I think it was attractive and some the designs and prototypes for Hudson ( and Nash) cars post 1957 are quite fasinating.

Have it, love it. I wish Brooklin had also done the Nash

I think we'd all agree that the '54 Hudson Hornet was, indeed, FABULOUS...is the '55, too? Maybe not quite as much so, but I still love it!

I agree Mike.
