The new 1946 Hudson Super-Six, | graphically illustrating the com pletely new front end design, and postwar smartness resulting from creation of a more massive ap pearance. New lines give the entire car that low-longer appearance. At center, head-lamp level, is the newly designed adaptation of the Hudson triangle emblem, mounted on a heavy cross bar topping the grill, and indirectly lighted from the rear. Bumpers are heavy, wide and very long, and the sealed beam head-lamps are of oval de sign, each carrying the well-known Hudson emblem at the bottom. The factory is now shipping cars. New Hudson Line Winning Praise Of Motorists Here New 1946 Hudson automobiles, now being shown by Reid & Has kett, 216 Market street, are win ning instant approval due to the postwar advances in exterior and interior styling, mechanical effi ciency and ease of operation, ac cording to Mr. Haskett. Declaring that the new models fully meet the demand for better cars for better driving, Mr. Has kett said that deliveries will be made as rapidly as possible and those placing the first orders will get the first cars. He added that present Hudson owners are well represented in those viewing the first cars built since the end of the war. Mr. Haskett has been advised by the factory that Hudson is in a unique position for prodhction by reason of early reconversion, early — orders for materials and in inte grated plant that enables an un usually high percentage of the completed auto’s components. He continued: “The new models are being offered in two distinctly different “style lines”—the Super series and the Commodore series, each avail able with six or eight cylinder engines. However, immediate pro duction schedules call for four door sedans powered by six-cylin der engines followed by broughams and club coupes. Three-passenger coupes and convertibles will be added to the Hudson line as rapid ly as urgent demands for first pro. duction models will permit. Con vertibles and eight-cylinder pow ered cars in both the Super and Commodore series will be pro duced as rapidly as possible.” OBITUARIES E. W. BELL Funeral arrangements for E. W.
