Kit Foster gives us the facts and figures about the 1936-40 Hudsons. His article is in the February 2008 issue of Collectible Automobile (still, unbelievably, with no web site).

I especially like the attention-getting anecdote about Hudson Vice-President Stuart Baits at the beginning of the story. It's a nice way to begin. (These CA articles inevitably lapse into droning book reports with dense recitations about wheelbase changes, etc., but the heart beats a little faster when there's a wisp of a story about the people who built the cars. Thank you, Kit!)

I especially like the "Duo-Automatic Brakes", the fencer's mask front grilles, and the sliding pickup box in the 1940 Traveler models. And, let's face it, the 1939 woody wagon is a lust object. (Any orphan woody wagon gets extra points in my book.)
