Don Mayton sent me this photo...he took a photo of a photo on the wall of a restaurant in Grand Rapids, Michigan. A locally coach-built job? Something I've never seen before, anyway. Comments?

Mid '20's, Doors not suicide as most (maybe all?) Hudsons were then. Can't find my Butler's book to check out options - wonder who I've lent it to???

@ESSX28-1... Had the same problem (couldn't find my Butler's book) - now I've got three of them, and still can't find the book when I need to look something up! LOL! =))

Butler's shows two "woody" type wagons (Cantell and Cotton were the manufacturs) in 1923 and nothing until 1929 where he shows the Dover truck that looks to be just like the photo above. Dover did a distinctive grill and the photo above looks just like the Dovers. I'd say it is a Dover sedan delivery....

Looks like a Hudson triangle on the top of the radiator shell.

It probably is a custom one-off. The cars of the '20s and early '30s lent themselves, by their styling, to truck conversions. There have been at least one 1920's trucks turn up in recent months.

Considered the Dover but the Hudson Triangle on the radiator , the 12 THIN spoke wheels & the lack of cowl (park) lights suggested otherwise!!

agree with Alex

Not a Dover, nor an Essex, nor a Hudson.
