1952 Hudson Commodore 6 Automatic
***Vendor supplied images***
Highlights
- Rare example of Hudson’s largest, most luxurious Coupe
- Fifty years of family ownership
- Good candidate for restoration
- American registration, all import duties and VAT have been paid.
The Appeal
The Hudson Commodore was a smash hit for the legendary carmaker. Designed by Betty Thatcher, the first female designer employed by a car manufacturer, the car’s sharp stature and impressive interior made for a big, comfortable car that the petrolhead public adored. Plus, powered by the ever-popular Hudson Powerdome, it had quite the spot of tiger in its tank.
This example has been standing in storage for some time, and could do with an extensive restoration. However, it’s a car not often seen in Europe - and should make for a standout in any enthusiast’s collection.
