1924 HUPMOBILE SERIES R
In the "Standard Catalog of American Cars" Beverly Rae Kimes says
of Robert Craig Hupp's 1908 prototype car bearing his name, "It was
cute and it had moxie." That was Bev and that was the Hupmobile,
too. Hupp left his eponymous company in 1911, but the cars bearing
his name continued to grow. 1925 was the last year for the classic
4-cylinder Hupmobile Series R of which this is a rare example.
Hupmobileswere quality automobiles with dramatic, low styling which
made them favorites of the flappers of the Twenties. This 1924
Series R Special Roadster exemplifies the flamboyant design that
made the Hupmobile a favorite of Twenties' style-setters. It has
been given a repaint in Dark Green with black fenders that is
emblematic of the period, with an associated black interior and
top. Fitted with disc wheels, whitewall tires and a windshield
frame mounted rear view mirror; it is the personification of the
Roaring Twenties.37.5 bhp, 182.5 cu. in. four-cylinder inline
L-head engine, three-speed manual transmission, solid front axle
with semi-elliptic leaf springs, live rear axle with semi-elliptic
leaf springs, two-wheel mechanical drum brakes. Wheelbase: 115"
