Hello All:



I'm just curious if anyone would know what the production numbers are of a 1949 Hudson 491 Businessman's Coupe?



The only one I've ever seen is my own, and they don't seem to be listed anywhere, so I was just curious....



If anyone has any details, I would appreciate the information!



Thanks!

    Contact Alex Burr, he's the "info" man. In fact spend $10.00 & get one of his "General Information Handbooks for Hudson Built Automobiles" CD's.

    Everything you ever wanted to know about Hudsons & even more that you didn't realise was available.

    Just hit Alex's name in red on any of the numerous threads on this Forum that he contributes to, & you can send him a "private massage".

    Unfortunately Hudson didn't leave any records giving a breakdown by body styles, or models. For example, serial number 101 (first off the line) could have been a Super Six, 102 a Commodore 8, 103 another Super Six and so on thru the run.





    http://www.freewebs.com/hudsontech/index.htm (scroll down on the opening page to the bottom entry.

    I also have a break down of monthly production, ie 1949 serial numbers 101 thru 2176 were built in October 1948, 2177 thru 20603 iin Nov. 1948 and so on. That chart is also on my web site under "Miscellaneous Tech. Bulletins". Maybe I should change that title. Hmmm



    Hudsonly,
