Vehicle Description
Hupmobile was an American automobile built from 1909-39. The
comprehensive restoration began with removing the body from the
frame. The chassis is in good shape, with only signs of use but no
damage in its past. The engine was removed and rebuilt using many
NOS parts, and the transmission was opened, inspected and then
reassembled using new seals. The driveline consists of the original
224ci flathead 6-cylinder engine mated to a 3-speed manual
transmission. All other elements - such as electrical, preparation
for paint, chrome and upholstery - were checked thoroughly and
prepared ensuring a proper restoration. No stone was left unturned
during the lengthy restoration. There are a few very minor signs of
use and age. The two-tone paint job takes advantage of the body's
fluid lines to make for natural break points. The beige cloth
interior is a pretty accurate representation of what you got in
1934, with basic patterns and attractive original materials. The
spacious rumble seat area is trimmed in vinyl for all-weather use.
The rear window rolls down effortlessly and the original shade is
quite impressive. The suicide doors are a cool look and quite
functional, as sliding into the front seat is very easy. The door
panels are finished in matching fabric with integrated door
pockets.
