I may be only 27 and blind, but that doesn’t stop me from being a classic car enthusiast. Hudson is one of my top three favorite manufacturers of all time up there with Ford and Chevy to this day.
@tomomiko202 Yes, more so than Studebaker. Studebaker was one of the highest paying auto manufacturers, and it seemed like the workers kind of took advantage of this. It was one of the reasons they went broke. Like the Jeep and Ram plant workers today.
First pick Studebaker coupe express, second any Hudson Big Boy or earlier Terraplane pickup, great episode. That is going to be a fun truck for someone to enjoy. Thanks for the clutch tip. and finding a second Big boy. Went back and watched the blue 46 Big boy, that one ts luxurious.
Hudson, with Studebaker and Packard were, arguably, the finest of America's car makers. Chrysler carried on the tradition into the 1960's but don't know what happened to them. Mama and I moved to the 'country', before Virginia Beach was a City. Mr. Brooks, the man who build our house, had a 1953 Hudson Hornet. Mr. Flamant, across the street, had a 1951 Patrician. Next to Mr. Brooks was a 1954 Studebaker Conestoga wagon. On the next street Mr. Reider had a 1951 Lincoln Cosmopolitan. Mrs. Hatch had a 1952 Rolls-Royce Wraith. Mr. Robbins had a 1951 Chrysler Imperial Town Sedan. Those WERE the days!
How cool would it be to have one of those 50s Hudson 'Utes' as shown at 3:40! Never even heard of those before. As usual, great research, Jay. Beautiful maroon paint on the 47! WYR= Stude and the 41 Hudson. I like the grille on the 41 better. I'm (im)patiently waiting for the Ruxton episode!
Same, this just proves that modern vehicle manufacturers are just plain greedy.. I mean, they charge more for a plastic bumper than a steel bumper.. I had a 67 Mustang at one point you could get every single part for that car back in 2010 a bumper was like 250 bucks meanwhile if you wanted a 2010 Honda Odyssey bumper it was like 500 bucks and the Honda Odyssey bumper is plastic. It’s absolutely insane.
When I was growing up sitting on a fender with feet on the headers, anything could be fixed, changed or repaired with a screwdriver and an adjustable wrench.
Those were the days… I’m thankful for technology, but the quality is gone. We live in a plastic world. Even our cars are plastic and they charge a fortune for them.
Just responding to part 1 of the survey. I love the Studebaker. I think my choice is heavily influenced by the 2 tone paint. It looks nice on a pickup.
I always thought Hershey should make a candy with the old, small, triangular, individual, cardboard creamer container…filled with Hershey’s Dark Chocolate Syrup. The name…drumroll…Hershey Squirts. 😂😂😂
Hi Jay! Those Hudson and Terraplane trucks were SO nice! Glad that one found a new home! I kind of wish that manufacturers would go back to these car-truck hybrids! Only thing is, they would be at least $40k! But for $23K sign me up! WYR. . .One has got to be the Stude Coupe Express! What a looker! Two. . .Would probably pick the '47, but MAN they are ALL nice!
Thanks Jay, there's no way I can honestly choose between your offerings although I DO lean toward the Studebaker, always liked the Coupe Express. There's something about Hudson; just the look of a Hudson says solid, dependable, comfortable and that goes for every Hudson not just this particular model. I miss AMC.
Yup, that 37 Stude was a sweet truck. The only thing I can see that works against this truck is finding parts, and if you can find them, be prepared for some price-gouging. WYR: -1- Willys -2- 1939.
What an awesome ride except for the recessed grille, I just don't care for that. Both the bed and tailgate are perfect, which with them being single-layer metal is incredible this far along as they get banged up the first time any hard load shifts. The reverse-opening hood gives great access too. The dashboard, steering wheel, and turn signal box are superbly styled and seats like these are more comfortable than you'd imagine. WYR The Studebaker Coupe Express wins but they're all great. Then the 41 Big Boy. No clue on NTT- is it from the same era?
I love the old basic utility six-powered pickups. Straight sixes are so durable because they are never stressed. Why would anyone sell such a rare and beautiful truck?
Life priorities change I guess. If I had the money I probably would've bought it somebody that is part of this community sent me a link to a 1947 big boy earlier this year for $6500. It was probably the bargain of the century and it was right up the road, if I had the money I would've totally bought it because they were asking very little for it. Yes it needed some stuff but most of it was there.. all of the Hudson specific stuff was there it didn't last a day it was gone.. but these are getting forgotten unfortunately that's why this channel is exist to bring the light all of the lost and forgotten cars. There are so many cool cars out there one day I might have a collection as big as leno of orphan cars..
The maroon looks so nice on this but I desperately want to paint that left front wheel. It sticks out like a sore thumb and lets down an otherwise great looking pickup. I'm not crazy about the open white letter tires on it either. I love the dashboard. I'd choose the '37 Studebaker Coupe Express and the '47 Big Boy.
A friend of the channel sent one to me earlier this year for $6500 it was the bargain of the century it needed restored but was worth way more than they were asking if they washed it
WOW!!!! I've never seen nor heard of a Hudson Big Boy before!!! Stunning! WYR 1: You're right! Totally unfair! 2: I think I'll go with the 41! That gaping mouth on the 47 is a little off-putting to me. Somehow it reminds me of the inside of a cat's mouth or something! I could easily overcome it though!
So happy I could show this one to you it was also cool that it was Mike Wolfe's it's one of my favorite trucks ever behind the 37 studebaker coupe express of course but would drive either of them
Beach Boys from the never-completed Smiles album from 1967. The song is "Vegetables." I was...11, when the song came out, and that may have been the last time I heard it. ruclips.net/video/ERqU8MNqUnc/видео.html
Enjoy your vidos, Jay. Unfortunately on the Hudson PU you missed its most afvanced feature, fully independent short/long arm front suspension. I know this because iI own one. No other pu manufacturer had IFS until the 60's. Maybe spend less time on styling gee-gaws and more on learning about the mechanical features. Just saying.
Never saw these before ! This would be a awesome resto mod, with a 4200 vortex, or a big block GMC i6, with modern transmission , 6L80, 8L90, it tremac TKO 5 speed, tr6060, the 5-speed used with the 4200 vortec. Either would be cool. With 20" rims 50 series Tires.
To be honest, I wouldn't pick any of the choices. I mean they are neat looking, but the Chevy pickup from this era I think are the best all around. Also, I've never liked low riding, car based pickups, which the Hudson basically is.

Your hyper-enthusiasm will never make any Hudson a desirable vehicle. Crapola then, still crapola. The American truck buyer chose Chevrolet, Dodge, Ford, and GMC, game over!

I hope at car shows, you are offered permission to feel the lines and textures of a car.
I'm bind too one eye and tunnel in the other one.
What about Packard, Nash and Studebaker???
Hudson had a reputation as a strong, reliable car, my dad said.
@tomomiko202 Yes, more so than Studebaker. Studebaker was one of the highest paying auto manufacturers, and it seemed like the workers kind of took advantage of this. It was one of the reasons they went broke.
Like the Jeep and Ram plant workers today.
Fantastic pickup! Thanks for featuring this. Love your content.
It won't be the last big boy hope to cover them all =) happy you dig this channel

I saw a 52 Hudson UTE at hershey one year I haven't saw another one since that would be an epic feature
If a manufacturer could make a modern equivalent of a 1947 Hudson Big Boy pickup and sell it for $23k, I would run out and buy it immediately.
Same, this just proves that modern vehicle manufacturers are just plain greedy.. I mean, they charge more for a plastic bumper than a steel bumper..

Never knew Hudson made a truck. Thanks
Thank you so much for watching =)
I liked how Ford and Chevrolet picked up on this idea with the Ranchero and El Camino in the 50's
It probably goes back farther than that nothing is new
WYR: Studebaker Coupe Express, one of my favorite vehicles ever. I like the 1941 Hudson, though I'm almost seduced by the side mounts on the 1939.
When I was growing up sitting on a fender with feet on the headers, anything could be fixed, changed or repaired with a screwdriver and an adjustable wrench.
Those were the days… I’m thankful for technology, but the quality is gone. We live in a plastic world. Even our cars are plastic and they charge a fortune for them.
Diamond T also made a great looking small truck in this era...
Beautiful truck I always loved the Hudson vehicles all of them very classy vehicles ease of maintenance. I would drive her anywhere. Hudson - 47.
Totally agree
Sure does beat the Cyberpunk. Lol
I saw a cyber truck not too long ago who sings are huge they're about the same size as my 52 Chevy one ton with stake bed
Great looking truck. I have several marketing and sales pieces from this year.
Awesome I couldn't find that many Hudson truck ads from 47
The fenders are totally cool 😎. 🎉

Hudsons are full size !!!! Huge 😮 mid size autos for me 😉👍
Great Episode 👏👏👏
Happy Motoring ✌️🤠

I miss amc as well they were essentially gone before I was even born
Sweet choices happy you dig this episode
It looks like that Big Boy did a lot of part sharing with his Hudson sedan brother.
Lotta parts were shared between those two
Yup, that 37 Stude was a sweet truck. The only thing I can see that works against this truck is finding parts, and if you can find them, be prepared for some price-gouging. WYR: -1- Willys -2- 1939.
No wonder the 1947 is such a sought after Hudson truck...but that glove box is newsworthy.
That glove box is huge
There are still so many 1947 trucks out there. Must have been the post war boom? Never have seen a Hudson truck IRL.
They are very cool when you do get to see one
WYR: All of them.
Hahaha awesome the would you rather tonight is unfair
Also this truck was owned by Mike wolfe from American pickers
@@What.its.like. That particular truck was owned by THAT guy? SWEET!
Yep I was like I got to sit in the same seat as Mike Wolfe it was pretty cool
@@What.its.like. Would've been cooler if he had been there to go over stories of his time with it.
Not a bad looking truck with a pretty stylish interior to boot. I'll take the Studebaker and '39 Hudson.
Sweet choices =)

WYR The Studebaker Coupe Express wins but they're all great. Then the 41 Big Boy. No clue on NTT- is it from the same era?
NTT is from the mid 60s I think Dennis got it
The recessed grill looks very interesting , but I agree I think I like the 41 better
47 Big Boy!

What's the diameter of a milk churn? 8 in line alone the back in one of the photos.
I like the 47 Hudson except some of the add ons. ie the wheels, and the lights and back bumper.
Abbott and Castillo buck private come home, race track scene, I think they had a hudson on the race track...
2nd lot, 1939 Hudson
There is one of these close to me for sale. I wish i could afford it & afford to restore it.
A friend of the channel sent one to me earlier this year for $6500 it was the bargain of the century it needed restored but was worth way more than they were asking if they washed it
Hudson Ranchero
Hudchero 😁
I'd go for the '47 Hudson.
Awesome choice
Glove box will hold two cameras!
I know right I probably could've fit the whole camera bag in that glove box. It was probably the biggest box I've ever seen.
WOW!!!! I've never seen nor heard of a Hudson Big Boy before!!! Stunning! WYR 1: You're right! Totally unfair! 2: I think I'll go with the 41!

I know an older woman that wants one of those!
"OLD MAN RIVER" sung by Jay & The Americans. The following lyric is "DOO be DOO be DOO" 🎸🎸🎤🥁🎹
Haha it was beach boys vegetables, kind of out there song lol
1937 Studebaker.
37 Stude!
39 !
Beach Boys from the never-completed Smiles album from 1967. The song is "Vegetables."
I was...11, when the song came out, and that may have been the last time I heard it.

I have the release of the smile album the one from around 2012 it's an interesting album
1937 Studebaker Express then 1939 Hudson Big Boy.

Eh back in this era this made more power than Dodge, Chevy And those trucks were half tons and the bed wasn’t as big
Sweet!
