Frank Spring started work for the Walter M. Murphy Company of Pasadena, CA, in 1923. Many of the great chassis during this period were Murphy body with Peerless, Duesenberg, and Pierce Arrow to name a few. When Murphy's business began to slump in 1931, Spring joined Hudson as 'Styling Engineer.' Spring also brought along Frank Hershey from the Murphy Company. Hershey stayed with Hudsosn for only four months, but during his short stay, they produced several show cars and design concepts.

Frank Spring gave the 1932 models an updated appearance with modern sweeping fenders and body curves. In the front was a V-shaped grille with vertical bars. It had a single-piece bumper with a triangular-shaped head and taillights.

The Standard models had a single windshield and taillight while the other's had dual wipers, taillights, and white sidewall tires. The Series L customers had the choice of either natural-finish wood wheels or wire wheels.
