  • 1909-1957 Introduction
    SERIAL NUMBERS FOR Hudson - Essex - Essex-Terraplane & Terraplane 1909-1957 INTRODUCTION A study of Hudson serial numbers is, to say the least an interesting exercise. I have been working on the numbers for over 30 years, and I doubt I fully understand the Hudson system. The main problem with researching these numbers is that over several sources I found many disagreements - even within Hudson publications. A good example of this confusion is the 1948-1954 numbers. Most Hudson sources give -101 as the starting number from 1948 thru 1954, regardless of model. Other sources gave other starting numbers. Over the years as we obtained more information from various sources, such as copies of two documents that listed 1946 thru 1954 Monthly Model Year Production Data giving a monthly break down of serial numbers, we have incorporated that data into our data base. For example for 1948 serial numbers 101-860 are shown as being produced in October 1947. We combined the two (1946-1947 and 1948-1954) into one document and it is reproduced in this booklet. When all is said and done we cannot say that these figures, especially the early numbers, are entirely accurate. We have done the best we can with what we had, but we feel that what we have is as accurate as can be found. The main sources of these numbers are as follows: Various Hudson parts book; Branhams Automobile Reference Book NADA Official Used Car Guides; Official Blue Book New & Used Car Guide We found the Branhams books to be quite accurate when compared against Hudson books.

  • The Evolution of the US Automotive Industry
    The Evolution of the U.S. Automotive Industry Course No: D05-004 Credit: 5 PDH Robert P. Tata, P.E. Continuing Education and Development, Inc. 22 Stonewall Court Woodcliff Lake, NJ 07677 P: (877) 322-5800 [email protected] The Evolution of the U.S. Automotive Industry Copyright 2013 Robert Tata, B.M.S.E., P.E. All Rights Reserved Introduction The author, a licensed Professional Engineer, has also been employed in an engineering capacity by all “Big Three” automakers; GM, Ford, & Chrysler. Here he has sought to investigate the series of events that made Detroit, Michigan the automotive capital of the world. Detroit, Michigan is a place, off the beaten path, in an isolated glove-shape piece of land thrust up between two lakes, with sometimes very inclement weather. Ohio and Indiana, who were also active in the creation of the auto industry in the U.S., are in the same general area of the country as Michigan and share the same climate. How did the industry get its start in this three-state area. One would think that other parts of the country would be more conducive to the formation of such an important part of the history of this nation. Michigan, Ohio, and Indiana were not members of the original 13 states and therefore have to be considered less developed territories than the original thirteen states around the turn of the 19th century when the American gasoline powered automobile was invented. Read how the author has searched for the answers to these somewhat perplexing questions surrounding why Detroit became “The Motor City”.

Number The papers of UAW Local 154 Detroit, were placed in the Wayne State University Archives of Labor and Urban Affairs in 1963 by officials of the UAW and were opened for research in March 1979• UAW Local 154 was formed in 1936 to reoresent the workers of the Hudson Motor Car Company, Detroit. The officials and rank and file of Local 154 belonged to UAW Local 18312, affiliated with AFL, un- til July 1934. The local broke away from the AFL and for two years belonged to the Associated Automobile Workers of America. In July 1936 the local was reconstituted and designated UAW Local 154. UAW Local 154 represented Hudson Motor Car Company workers until 1955 when the company was merged with Nash-Kelvinator, forming American Motors Corporation. The entire manufacturing operation of Hudson Motor Car Company was moved to Kenosha and Milwaukee, Wisconsin after the merger and Local 154 represented workers of the Special Products Division of American Motors where some of the laid off Hudson employees found work. After 1955 the membership in Local 154 dropped rapidly and in its later years the local was chiefly representative of retirees of the defunct Hudson Motor Car Company. Local 154 ceased activities in 1963. The years 1933 through 1935 are particularly well covered in the correspondence series and the complete minute books from 1936 to 1957 provide important insights into the growth, de- velopment, and decline of Local 154.

  • HUDSON by Rick Feibusch
    THE 1949 TO 1954 "STEP-DOWN" HUDSON by Rick Feibusch Prior to the 2006 release of the Pixar/Disney film “Cars,” in which a blue Hudson Hornet called “Doc Hudson ” stars as a decidedly grumpy retired racecar from the past, many younger people viewed the Hudson motorcar as the extinct cousin to the Nash and yet another marque fatality of the 1950s. There are still many of us that remember this fine nameplate in its pre-AMC merger days, when high q uality, solid build, pace setting performance, and technical innovation were Hudson hallmarks. Created with the idea to offer improved transportation at a reasonable cost, Hudson was successful almost from the start in serving the upper middle-class motorists of the day. Unlike many pioneer automakers, the Hudson wasn't named for the man who created the car, but for the man who financed the company. The founders of this firm, veterans of the Olds Motor Works, were Roy D. Chapin, Howard Coffin, George Dunham and Roscoe Jackson. The honor of sharing his name with the new brand went to Joseph Hudson, owner of the giant department store, and an uncle to Mr. Jackson by marriage. Prior to WWII, the Hudson line was considered a great example of independent auto making, one of the most respected names in American automobiles. From the streamlined little Terraplanes, competing well against contemporary Fords, Plymouths, and Chevys, to the big Super Eight Broughams which ventured off into big Buick territory, the Hudson had quite a following of folks that understood quality motorcars and dared to be a bit different.

  • Hudson Motor Car Company
    HUDSON MOTOR CAR COMPANY TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETINS Volume 1 TS 77-1 – TS 84-2 Introduction In the early 1970's I began a research project aimed at collecting information about Hudson built cars, the idea being to put this information from many sources into one place. The data came from Hudson parts books, owner's manuals, outside sources, even Hudson ads through the years. In 1984 I put it all together as "The Hudson, Essex and Terraplane Handbook of General Information". At that time, when I sought to find an outlet for this handbook, realizing that it would receive limited distribution, it met with resounding silence. Admittedly, I did not pursue the sales of this volume - i.e., advertising it in the HET Club publication, the "White Triangle News". I did, however, have some copies printed up and sent them to various chapter presidents with the idea of having them show it around to their members. In 1993 I came across a new medium for editing and storing this data - the computer age arrived at my household. Little did I realize at the time how much work and time would be involved in the task of imputing my original handbook to a computer file. However, it was finally done and now it was possible to print copies much more easily. It also became evident that it was easier to change - and while the basic information remains the same, there have been some corrections (mostly typos) and changes in format. Several HET members have received copies of these newer computer generated handbooks for services rendered - they also, I have found, make excellent Christmas gifts.

  • Joe Brown Papers
    THE JOE BROWN COLLECTION Papers, 1930-1942 17 1/2 linear feet 21 scrapbooks The late Joe Brown was a Detroit automobile unionist, a sheet metal worker who also wrote articles for the Federated Press during the 1930's. He col­ lected and preserved articles, clippings, leaflets, membership lists, pam­ phlets, and other items pertaining to unionization, especially in the auto industry. Mr. Brown spent four years arranging these rare early materials, some of which he put into indexed scrapbooks. He intended it to be used for stud­ ies of the worker on the job, a focus which he felt was a neglected part of history. In a 1942 letter he expressed the philosophy of his collec­ tion: "Auto workers are not merely auto workers. They are natives, foreigners, hill-billies and city­ born persons, Catholics and protestants, Germans and Britishers, whites and negroes, skilled and unskilled, educated and ignorant, Communists and one hundred per centers, those with no seniority - little seniority - longtime seniority,effi­ cient and inefficient - the list could be contin­ ued indefinitely. They bring into the union phi­ losophies and ideas from a bewildering complexity of previous environments. Our project deals with this group action arising from previous environ­ ments, and attempts to explain the nature of it." After Joe Brown died, in 1951, his collection was placed in the Wayne State University Library and later transferred to the Archives of la­ bor and Urban Affairs. Subjects in the collection are of broad range, with particular strength in strikes of the 1930's, such the Briggs and Motor Products strikes; Mechanics Educational Society of America, and factionalism within the UAW.
