1947 HUDSON SUPER SIX CAB PICKUP
HISTORY
The Hudson Motor Car
Company was known for producing durable, well engineered but conservatively
styled automobiles. Commercial vehicles were a small sideline for the company.
In the sellers market following the Second World War, Hudson ramped up Commercial vehicle
production to meet the needs of returning servicemen and the expanding economy. These trucks were
rated at ¾ Ton capacity and were extremely durable. They featured a 212 cubic
inch inline six referred to as a “3 by 5” because of the corresponding bore and
stroke.
The 1947 Hudson Super
Six Cab Pickup featured in this auction was purchased and restored by one of
the foremost Hudson parts vendors. I am listing this truck for his widow. The
restoration was completed in 1977. The mileage was reset to zero at that time.
The current mileage is 11, 008. It has a factory replacement 212 engine with no
VIN number. This truck is loaded with every conceivable option. This includes
standard shift with Overdrive, a 4 5/9 rear axle, Oil Bath air cleaner, Oil
Filter, Fog Lights, Electric clock, Radio and Heater, Directional signals and
fender lights. It also has a deluxe front bumper and fender trim from a Hudson
Commodore car.
CONDITION
This car is a very nicely preserved restored truck that will
drive to any destination. You could start driving this truck every day. It runs
and drives nicely and has a cruising speed of 60-65 MPH. The paint, chrome and
interior were restored in 1977, but have held up beautifully! Many NOS parts
were utilized in the restoration. The steering wheel, interior and Chrome are
in near new condition! The interior was restored in the correct Leatherette.
The paint and body have held up well, although detailing would buy this truck a
lot! The Oak bed is Very Nice. The spare tire is in the correct under bed
holder. All of the lights and Gauges work. The Clock and Radio work nicely
including the searchtune feature on the Radio, although there is little to
listen to on AM Radio these days! I checked everything and could find nothing
that does not operate. I have driven this truck and it has
a whisper Quiet, Good Running 212. It really runs Strong! It is currently
Licensed, Insured and on the road. This has to be one of the Nicest, Best
optioned Hudson pickups on the planet!
