What year is this Hudson?

    It is identified as a "Hudson Super Six Touring Limousine" but I can't seem to nail down the exact year. Any help from a Hudson genius would be appreciated.

    My guess is '20. It reminds me of Buzz Stahl's.

    My guess is 1919.

    They sold this same body style from 1919 through to 1924.

    And very little difference in trim from year to year. Difficult to nail down the exact year on this one.

    However, upon close inspection, because of the 10-spoke front wheels and the low-set bowl shaped headlamps I tend to agree that it is 1918 or '19, as from 1920 onwards all cars had 12-spoke front wheels.

    The body is clearly a Biddle&Smart as the widshield shape was characteristic opf their work at that time. It is just like the windshield on the 1923 seven passenger sedan I once owned. But the headlights do mark it a pre-1920.

    Here's a "known to be a '19" that was part of the Hudson anniversary display at Hilton Head Concours last year.
