1951 Hudson Super 6
1951 HUDSON SUPER SIX CUSTOM CONVERTIBLE
Marketed as a car that you could own and drive with enduring pride, Hudson’s Step-down cars marked a new direction for the company. A partially unitary design, it put the floorpan on the bottom of the frame rather than the top. One would step down to enter a Hudson. And it was truly unique in that respect at the time of introduction. Also new was a six-cylinder engine with pressure lubrication. In 1951, the famed Hornet model appeared, with a 308-CID version of the new six.
