Hudson Hornet is a full-sized automobile that was manufactured by
Hudson Motor Car Company of Detroit, Michigan from 1951 until 1954,
when Nash-Kelvinator and Hudson merged to form American Motors
Corporation (AMC). Hudson automobiles continued to be marketed
under the Hudson brand name through the 1957 model year. The
first-generation Hudson Hornets featured a functional "step-down"
design with dropped floorplan and a chassis with a lower center of
gravity than contemporary vehicles that helped the car handle well
- a bonus for racing. The Hornet's lower and sleeker look was
accentuated by streamlined styling, sometimes called "ponton"
styling. Hornet owner Spencer Blake, writing for Popular Mechanics
in 1999, notes that "the car's unique, low slung appearance and
silky handling earned Hudson an image that - for many buyers -
eclipsed luxury marques like Cadillac."In order for American Motors
to build Hudson cars on the newer factory assembly line for Nash
Statesman/Ambassador unibody chassis, all second-generation Hudson
Hornets were restyled Nash automobiles that were badge engineered
as a Hudson.
