Very blurred picture with no details at all of front or hood sides.The car has 4 "suicide" doors , a one piece windshield , wire wheels and small parking lights on top of the front fenders.It is probably a 1933 Terraplane Sedan built by the Hudson Motor Car Co. but not 100 % sure without front details.Up till 1933 these cars were also called " Essex Terraplane" but the name " Essex" was soon dropped and the make became "Terraplane". Engine could be a six or an eight |

Shoudn't it be" Hudson Terraplane"..is Terraplane independant make or serie? |

As explained by pilou, Terraplane was independant in the same sense as mercury and lincoln were independant from ford. |

I have a 1933 Terraplane, and the wheels are wrong on this along with the sloped back of the car - how about Rockne - or we should look at what other cars had 4 "suicide" doors then. |

Checking this one out - after many years! Here is a '33 Terraplane - http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3555/3610873980_db1c51365a.jpg - note different shape at the back. This pic of a terraplane eight is also in my copy of The Standard Catalog - Link to "www.oldcarsweekly.com") This is enough to confirm the car here is not a Terraplane. I think what pilou saw as side lights on the fenders is actually part of the headlights. I think this car is a 1933 Plymouth PD. -- Last edit: 2011-04-21 21:58:46 |
