| “The car appears to be in original un-restored condition and it runs, drives and looks good except that the leather interior is showing age with some cracking and a couple of small tears plus there is a recent issue with the rear window zipper so we haven’t been able to zip the window closed. (See all pictures that were just taken for this listing.) The car will come with the front exterior visor on the car. The power top also needs some manual assistance while opening/closing but it does work. We also are not sure if the Super-Matic is working or not. However, the car is now over 65 years old so we are selling it as-is. Please contact us if you have any questions about this car or to set up a time to come view it for yourself.” |

Vehicle description
1950 Hudson Commodore Eight Convertible Brougham - Series 504 Original Low Mile California Car This luxurious Hudson Commodore Eight Convertible Brougham is extremely rare with only around 425 total produced for 1950. This very desirable model was the most expensive in the Hudson line with a list price of close to $3,000 in 1950, about the same price as the Series 61 Cadillac. This sleek automobile has just under 60,000 actual miles and has been in California since it was first registered in 1950. The previous owners included Bruce Brown (Director of the movie, “Endless Summer”) plus the acclaimed sculptor, Albert Guibara. (Previous registration documents are included with the car.) This wonderful motorcar appears to be quite original and is heavily equipped as follows- Power convertible top (Black) with glass rear window (Hydraulic) Super Eight - 128 bhp, L Head inline eight cylinder engine 3 Speed manual transmission Super-Matic Drive (Automatic) Power windows (Hydraulic) Exterior sun visor (shown in some pictures) Dual spotlights Dual fog lights Dual exterior mirrors Hubcaps with trim rings Fender skirts Leather and carpeted interior Front & rear bumper guards Heater Radio Clock Dual windshield wipers Dash gauges: speedometer, temperature, fuel White sidewall tires Spare tire/wheel in trunk with jack and tools In the early 1950’s, the iconic Hudson Step-Down cars set numerous NASCAR records including most consecutive wins in a season record that still stands today. The “Step-Down” design had the lowest center of gravity in America coupled with the high-compression performance of their powerful Eight and this car is a Step-Down model.
