1954 Hudson Jet

   

This 1954 Hudson Jet is a two-door sedan that is finished in cream and brown over a brown interior and is powered by a 202ci flathead inline-six paired with a column-shifted three-speed manual transmission. Features include an AM radio, a lockable glovebox, cloth bench seats, and steel wheels with chrome hubcaps. This Jet is now offered at no reserve by the selling dealer in Florida with owner’s manuals and a clean Illinois title.

The Jet was produced for the 1953 and 1954 model years and was offered as a two-door or four-door sedan. This example was reportedly repainted in its current shade of cream during prior ownership and features a brown roof and pin striping. Exterior features include a cowl vent, a side mirror for the driver, and chrome bumpers with overriders. Flaws pointed out in the video gallery include a cracked driver’s window, finish imperfections, dents on the brightwork, and aged weatherstripping.

Brown-painted steel wheels feature polished trim rings and chrome hubcaps are mounted with whitewall Goodyear tires. A spare is secured in the trunk.

The bench seats and door panels are upholstered in brown cloth with patterned inserts, and the cabin features a matching brown dash and carpeting. Interior equipment includes an AM radio, a lockable glove box, opening front 3/4 vent windows, and floor mats.

A white-painted two-spoke steering wheel sits ahead of a 120-mph speedometer and auxiliary gauges. The five-digit odometer shows 25k miles, though total mileage is unknown. Cracks are noted on the steering wheel.

The 202ci flathead inline-six sends power to the rear wheels through a column-shifted three-speed manual transmission. A replacement ignition coil is said to have been fitted and an oil change was performed in preparation for the sale.
