This was called the Hudson "112" model. It was the lower-priced Hudson for 1938 and 1939. It replaced the "Terraplane" as Hudson's lower-priced car in 1938. The body is basicly the same as a Hudson's, but it has a shorter wheelbase and a less-powerful engine.

annnakarin, do you know the Svenska Hudsonklubben? http://www.hudsonsweden.org/index.html You should talk to someone in the Club, they would have a better idea of the value of this car in Sweden. We would be guessing at the value in America....it's not the same!

Wow! I like it. Nice looking Hudson!

Never been to Sweden either, but would love to help you work on it Annakarin!

annakarin,

Please let us know when you find out what the price is.

If you don't want it I could give it a home in England!

Unknown

he wants 3000 dollars for it



is this a fare price for the car

PaulButler

I'd like to see some more photos to get a better idea of the overall condition of the car BUT if I had the funds available then I'd seriously consider paying around $3,000 for the car on the basis that it looks solid and restorable.

These old things seem to be getting harder to find so I'd say go for it and enjoy bringing it back to life.

Hey Paul, my 39 is still available if you want to dig it out.



Annakarin,



That price is about right in US if the car is drivable and only needs a little work to be presentable.

Unknown

its drivable and has a good interior



the car is all solid , the car is just dirty on the pictures



all thing in the car works

KEL 39

There is a member of the HET Club in Sweden that may be able to help

you since he has a couple of "39s one being a 1939 coupe convertible.

His name is Jan Wahren and his email is janwahren@hotmail.com

Good Luck

regards annakarin

I agree, if it is all there (no parts missing), the fenders are not dented much, the body does not have a lot of rust, and the car runs....then this would be well worth $3,000 in the U.S. Or, at least it would have been, before the current economic slowdown, LOL!

If the car is in the condition that you describe than it is well worth the asking price. From the picture you posted it appears to have all the trim that it should have, including the chrome strip that runs down the center of the grill (that piece is missing on many 112's). From what can be seen in the picture, the grill looks like it is in good condition. Just ask Rick (46 HudsonPU) how difficult they are to find! LOL

Hey Uncle Josh,

If times weren't as hard as they are right now I'd be there with my shovel!

Just been put on notice here in the UK so the belt is being tightened.

now is the car mine and i drive it today



the engine runs very nice but the tre speed transmission is a litle bit



strange to drive i think the clutch is to need a rebuilt maby



its not slipping but its hard to get the gears in



is there some trick to do with the gears on this old car when you drive it



mvh / Annakarin

[Deleted User]

Annakarin, good news that you now own the car. Welcome to the world of Hudson. You probably need to flush the old clutch oil and replace with new. The clutch is the wet type that needs Hudsonite a clutch fluid. Where in Sweden are you? you may be near my friend Roland and he has Hudsons and give you some advice.

Unknown

thank you for the anwsers



i live in the south of sweden



is roland car blue metallic and does hi sell caravans too



in that case i was sitting in his car in a meet here in sweden *L*



do you have an e mail adress to this roland



Yes i think i must flusch the transmisson (with kerosine???)



is there oil inte the huse off the transmission to



where the gears are ? in that case what oil an how mutch is in int



regards / Annakarin

Hey Annakarin yes that is Roland with the Blue Hudson. I will send you a pm with Rolands address. He knows all the guys at the Swedish Hudson club so he is a good contact for you.



Yes flush with kersosine.

Unknown

Hello agine *L*



is there anybody that can help me



the chassie number is 9043721 the same on the motor



they have told me that maby this car is a utility car (prodused in 680 exemplar)



can some of you look this upp for me please





Regards / Annakarin

Jon B

Yes, your chassis number 9043721 proves that you have a 1939 Hudson "112" model. It is impossible to determine, by the number, which body type you have. Hudson did product "utility coach" in 1939. I think that the rear seat was removable so that large objects could be loaded into the car through the trunk ("boot"?) in much the same way as in a modern hatchback automobile.



No further information is possible from the chassis number. The original records and data from the Hudson company was destroyed many years ago so it is not possible to know how many of the utility coaches were manufactured.



We do know that in 1939, Hudson manufactured 640 "commercial" automobiles. All of these would have been model "112"s like your car, but some of them would have been "utility coaches", some would have been pickup trucks, others would have been delivery trucks, or station wagons, or other models. There is no way to know the actual production numbers of each body style.

thank you for the answeres the car is sold new in sweden by a company

[Deleted User]

Anna,



your car was assembled at this Swedish Hudson plant which operated from 37-39. The cars were assembled here with export lights and km speedo. This picture was sent to me from the Swedish Hudson club.
