LhD
Located in the USA...
- This is a 1932, 226I, Hupmobile, and according to the Hupp Motor Club, it's the last original model left running in the world today.
Price:$132,500..usd dollars.
Miles:79k
Manual trans.
- Although this award winning automobile has presided in Sonoma County for the last twenty three years, it lived most of its life in Walla, Walla Washington, where it sold off the showroom floor for $1,675.
- This was during the depression and so this was a great deal of money when one could buy a Model A Ford, for $375.
This car belonged to a political wheeler dealer in Walla Walla. As you can see, this was designed to be an executive car, but not flamboyant enough to be a "millionaire's" car, as the Duesenberg or Rolls Royce.
- But this model Hupp was for the elite of the middle class.
-It came with curtains, an extended rear seat with footrest and bar for the appropriate lap robe.
A unique feature of this car is the "free wheeling" shift control which allows for clutch-less shifting. A true predecessor to the automatic transmission.
It weighs approximately 4,500 pounds and has newly rebuilt mechanical breaks, steering and suspension. This model was originally called the Cycle Fender Hupp, designed by Raymond Lowry, since the design flair of the fenders gave it a look of motion when standing still.
- Lowry designed many contemporary pieces of art including the Studebaker Avanti.
- This Hupp exemplifies the beautiful curves of the American thirties.
- It has a straight eight engine, and puts out 103 horsepower.
- The Hupmobile company produced 650 units of this model among the twelve different models they manufactured that year.
- The Hupp Motor Co. was in existence from 1909 to 1941.
This rare beauty has been kept covered in a heated garage for the last twenty three years.
- It is also celebrating its 83st birthday, and looks as though it was recently on the showroom floor.
- Insured for the last ten years with J.C. Taylor for $70,000..
