1928 Hudson Model S Navigation
1928 was a big year for the Hudson Motor Car Company of Detroit, Michigan. The competition was fierce, and they knew they had to stand out to grab a piece of the market.
The all-new Hudson Roadster made a very bold statement. With a much sportier body built by Coachbuilders Biddle & Smart of Amesbury, Massachusetts, it featured a lengthened cowl and a low profile windshield, creating a much sleeker and lower look. This particular body was a one-year-only offering. In 1929, the Roadster would return to a much more traditional look, returning to a shorter cowl and a raised windshield and top.
Powered by a 289 cubic inch F-head engine, it produces a formidable 92 horsepower providing plenty of get-up-and-go. The big 19-inch Buffalo wire wheels, a sought-after option found on this example, certainly enhance the car's sporty image.
This prime example of a very rare Hudson S Roadster was discovered in Argentina in 1980. It was purchased and returned to the United States at that time. A well-known Hudson collector, David Kostansek, purchased the car and embarked on a three-year-long complete restoration. The current owners have lovingly preserved the car and enjoy showing and driving it whenever possible.
