Gateway Classic Cars is proud to present the story of the Holy
Grail Hudson. This 1947 Hudson Super 8 was found in a south Florida
garage stored since the 1990s. With a mere 24,820 miles (currently
25,587, 767 mi since rebuild), the Holy Grail Hudson exhibited the
least amount of wear, tear, and deterioration of any antique car we
have ever seen. The Hudson Super 8 had absolutely no rust, not even
one pin hole. The original cover on the tailpipe was intact; the
brake drums were uncut with mirror finish. The Super 8 was adorned
with the original 1947 window stickers as well as the original
dealer installed Do it in a Hudson bumper sticker. Hudson Motors
produced only 5076 - 1947 Hudson Super 8's, with very few remaining
on the road today. The Hudson is a number 1 condition car, and may
be the number one condition among all Hudson cars in existence
today. This 1947 Hudson Super 8 is truly a piece of fine art that
captures the essence of the art deco era. The colors are simply
wonderful and were carefully matched with era correct tones and
hues. The bronze colored glass compliments the beautiful two-tone
colors and gorgeous wood grain dash. The highly detailed art deco
style visor was hand fabricated in metal with hidden brackets. The
undercarriage is as nice as the exterior. This rust free 70
year-old 1947 Hudson Super 8 is of the highest condition and
quality of restored cars of the era.
