Taken in Tubac, Arizona. Tubac is an artist colony South of Tucson. We went there to look for art objects to buy and came upon this old Hudson as we were walking around town. The light was horrible at the time, but I took a few shots and then went about shopping with the hope that, by the time we would return, the sun would have moved sufficiently to allow a better show. No such luck and the people I was with cared less about me getting a shot of a cool old car and so weren't about to wait around any longer. So it goes.
The Arizona licence plate was from 1977. While a bit on the rough side, the car certainly looked like it could readily be restored, one of the benefits of being in a desert climate where rust isn't a major issue..
