Opus, you are right. It was a Hudson. And those sure are beautiful lines. (I love cars that look like they are moving when they are parked.) Those lines and that third side window should have told me. It was the hood ornament that gave me second thoughts.
It looks like Hudsons were classic beauties from 1950 through 1952. 1953 was nothing close to those glorious 3 years, and then Nash got them and made them ugly -- though more practical, I guess.
I found pictures late last night. I must warn that opening this link can cause a serious case of nostalgia. Side effects can include spending a lot of time pointing and clicking around the whole site, along with flashbacks to a time when all cars did not look alike. (I could not stop looking at the car section. But I will go back later and look at all those other topics.)
Those early Hudsons were beautiful, but, for me, there is nothing that can top a 1959 Cadillac convertible. I would be happy with either one. But (sigh) that will never happen. Oh well, at least I have my '59 Cadillac Christmas ornament.
I digress.
Here's the link:
