Some forty something years ago, HE&M Saw founder, Gerald Harris, bought an automobile at auction. Nothing special or unusual about that, except for what he bought was an original 1954 Hudson Hornet.

Having admired Hudson’s as a young man, he bought his first around 1946. A 1937 Hudson Terraplane Business Coupe, purchased from a wrecking yard for the ripe sum of $75, which was a lot of money back then.

Although that first Hudson had a bad cam, young Gerry Harris replaced it and off he went. The body rust on the frame and floor pans was no deterrent to a young man with a fast car. Well, until he revved the engine up past 7500 RPM and blew up the motor.
