but about the car, it was original driven in NJ by old man Ackerman this car never went above 25 mph. Old man Ackerman was the first own of this car he died in the 60's then his son took the car in put it into a shed until 1994 when the shed behind my family garage fell down revealing this old rundown car.

we bout it for about 5 dollars and where going to restore it but to make a long story short some guy tried swerving us on a set of "motor mounts" so we put a big block chevy into it. loll This race car is the way it is b/c of motor mounts. vbeck56's 1938 Hudson Commodore 6vbeck56's 1938 Hudson Commodore 6well back to the story we took it to the track and it was a head turner. so we stared to make it faster and faster we ran with super Chevy for a few years, outlaw street. loll it was a 7.45 second street car it was insane but than they dropped the class. and then we didn?t race for a few year do to engine and money issues. but now we are back and trying to compete with pro mods
