HERE now is a car which typifies the
ideal A tns time. This ste&m'inc
bocr this long, sloping hood this
aosicc o; angle aw the dasr. this
lovnung cnassis these crowned fenders this
plrxing of extra tires ro the front coors are left
clear -hese things belong to the car oi today;
In co.wc.uu., oj tn worm's b:st opiniqn is
that tnis type o car mar is thi coming idea 1 car.
Tht:e are radical chunscs but they are coming as
sitrejr" as f orecoor c&mc -nd as suddenly.
All tne btsc foreign cars English. French
anc Gtrman will this year exhibit exclusively
this new streamline body. And all men .know
that wnat thiy acopt in body ccsign becomes
Urn vorld-wide vogue.
Our tsigiuro iave added a hundred minor
effects. They have Americanized have Hud
sonizta the type. So tne car is distinctive.
There wil' be no other just like it But it
embodies what we regard as the highest con
ception of the modern trend in bodies.
And we believe that every connoisseur will
consider this new HUDSON Six the hand
somest car exhibited.
Engineering Pauses
We can claim in this car no great advance
as regiacU fine engineering and no HUDSON
253
owner expects it Fine engineering has limits.
For tne past four years Howard E. Coffin and
his able engineers have given their best to the
HUDSON Last year they brought Sixes
pretty close to perfection. So close that the
HUDSON Six jumped in one year into the
foremost rank among Sixes.
TJwse men have worked out in this new
mode, cair a vast number of minor engineering
imorovements. They have added scores of new
methin'tal features some of them quite im
portant. But we ner expect to build a
much. Detter chassis than we built in our last
year's Six.
This year's advances lie mainly in beauty, in
comfort, in conveniences, in room. We have
combined the best in lines, finish and equip
ment with the best in engineering. We have
succeeded in making the HUDSON Six the
masterpiece it is.
Now the Ideal Car
We now feel that this HUDSON 54 offers the
utmost in every wanted feature. It has the
staunchness of steel Pullmans. t It has the com
fort of Turkish lounging chairs. It has the
speed of express trains. It is free from all the
troubles which annoy the inexpert
No man knows how to build a car more
handsome and impressive. No conveniences are
absent no modern features lacking.
And all these things are here included in a
Six 54, with seven-passenger body, at the record
price of $2250 (f.o.b. Detroit. Michigan).
The New Features
ihese are among the new features we bring
out in this model. No mention is here made of
tho countless features in previous HUDSON
models which we still retain.
Seven-passenger body.
135-Inch wheelbase.
Left side drive. Right hand control.
36x4H-lnch tires.
Extra tires carried as never before ahead of
the front door. This leave both front
doors clear.
Four forward speeds.
Pure streamline body.
Low-hung body. '
No angles at the dash.
Wide tonneau doom.
Gasoline tank in dash.
Electric self-cranking, with the rapid type of
the Delco system built especially for this car.
Powerful electric lights with dimming attach
ment for city driving. They also act aa
ordinance lights.
Extra seats in tonneau fold into back of front
jeat. entirelv out of tho way
Jeweled magnetic speedometer in dash, with
new concealed noiseless gears.
Every operation and control placed within
reach of the driver's hand. Gasoline and oil
control, light and starter.
Individual Yale lock and ignition control,
prevents theft of car.
Rain-vlslon windshield built a part of the car.
Genuine Pantasote top. Curta.'ns that are
carried in the top can be instantly ad
justed. Electric horn trunk rack tiro holders
license carriers everything.
Come See It Come Today
Come to our showrooms and see this new
achievement It is not merely an improved car
it s a real innovation It will display to you
all the best thought of the day in automobile
designing
Come see it while it's new.
