Hudson Roadster 1928 Lebaron Coachwork

Unknown

Hey All! Does anybody have information as to where I might authenticate this car? It has model s tubular bumpers, no side mounts just 4 or 5 chrome strips where the tires would have been,a rear mounted spare and Le

baron badges on both sides of the cowl (Authentic, meaning they are the proper fonts lebaron used)Are there LeBaron coachwork experts out there somewhere that can tell even if I can find anything in writing?Contacted Chrysler Archives and they have no records.All I know is that the script of the badges matches that of an authentic LeBaron badge of 1930s vintage exactly and an article on the www.conceptcars.com website mentioned that a company called Briggs(which did its own coachwork), bought Lebaron in 1927 and they already had hudson as one of it's clients. But, this is all I have so far. the badges seem to be authentic,like why would they be there if not,like somebody had them and just riveted them on this car?Many questions no answers.Any experts out there? I sure could use some help. Thanks to anyone who can Sincerely Phil
