1941 Hudson Station Wagon one of 6
The Hudson Motor Car Company was an automobile manufacture that produced vehicles in Detroit, Michigan, from 1909 until 1954. The name "Hudson" came from Joseph L. Hudson, a Detroit department store entrepreneur and founder of Hudson's department store, who provided the necessary capital and gave permission for the company to be named after him.
The company had a number of firsts for the auto industry; these included dual brakes, the use of dashboard oil-pressure and generator warning lights, and the first balanced crankshaft, which allowed the Hudson straight-six engine, dubbed the "Super Six" (1916), to work at a higher rotational speed while remaining smooth, developing more power for its size than lower-speed engines.
RB Collection is pleased to offer this incredibly rare 1941 Hudson Station Wagon with an estimated production of 100 cars and only 6 remaining in existence. This example came to us from a well-known Hudson collector.
The wood that makes up the utilitarian body of this Hudson presents in excellent condition. The paint quality is very good, and the car is exceptionally straight with good panel fit all around. The straight and wave-free body gives us a good indication that this wonderful car has been well-maintained since new. The chrome trim is in superb order with no dings, dents, or pitting; with some pieces even appearing original and remaining in excellent order.
The brown interior wonderfully complements the exterior paint color and the remain in magnificent condition. Front and rear seats are in excellent condition, as are the interior door and quarter panels. This Hudson is equipped with the desirable heater unit under the dash and clock.
