Yes a 1946 Hudson Pickup from the new CARS movie representing Smokey Yunick. It seems appropriate that they would use a Hudson to have been the mentor to Doc Hudson. Smokey is now trying to help Lightning overcome his "aging" issues. Several other vintage race cars, a Nash and a couple of Fords make an appearance in the movie that I am hoping and assuming we will see in diecast. The other vintage race cars represent Louise Smith, Jr. Johnson and Wendell Scott. Yeah, I enjoyed the movie too - Father's Day treat from my youngest granddaughter and son and his wife. ![]() ![]() ![]() Smokey with Lightning McQueen and Doc listening in ![]() A pair of Hudson's - Smokey and Doc ![]() Smokey and Doc |

Smokey's coincidentally today's Car Of The Day! I also grabbed him when I saw him, and I can't wait to see the movie. Pixar is paying homage to the all time greats - I think that deserves kudos. |

Yes - I commented on that fact in the COTD post. The third movie is much better than the second one.

Wow, I've seen this truck, and picked it up, but didn't realize that it was a Hudson truck. I'll have to grab one next time I see one. Jerry, AMC guy |

Just imagine what it is like when you go into your toy room and have all sorts of eyes from the CARS models watching your every move.

Turn the clock back to the 1970's and I could tell where two were that were for sale out west - yes I know that was over forty years ago - I am pretty well removed from the old car hobby although in looking at the current Hemmings Classic Cars ads there are a number of Hudson pickups for sale. I am wondering if Smokey will generate other Hudson pickup models like Doc Hudson did when CARS first came out?
