Sorting out in the loft today I found a bunch of pictures and tucked away in there were these. I don't remember where the car was but seem to recall that it was just left to fade away. I'm hoping that I'm wrong there but I don't recall ever seeing this car on the road

My old buddy Lester may remember better than me what its eventual fate was. How I'd like to come across a car like that today!

Anyway enjoy

Thanks for the pics, Paul!

Looks like it's a Country Club & of course can't tell if it's a 6 or 8 cyl., but you can count the # of '39 CC conv. we know of here in the U.S. on 1 hand!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

As you can see as well the headlights had had the usual modifcations ; who knows what they had been taken from. The normal trick was to weld a couple of headlight buckets off anything that was available to fit sealed beam units

KEL 39

Looks like a Hudson Six 92 brougham convert.
On a CC the Bonnet side panel has a glass ornament light at the end of the s/s spear.
Looks like this model has a chromed spear which would make it Hudson Six 92.
Pacemaker 91 had the same spear but I do not think they made any brougham converts.

Thanks for posting, Paul. I noticed those headlights, right off. I'm with you, would love to find something like this sitting around.

Kel 39- Believe you are correct.

Thanks to both of you for the pics. Those 39s always get my blood pumping!!!!
except the "frog eye" tail lights on cps and convt.s LOL

Hey! The "frog eye" tail lights look good on this 1930 Henderson Streamliner! LOL

It was common practice to put a conversion kit for the head lights to use sealed beam lights. They look simular to 39 Fords. However, this conversion looks home made.
