1936 HUDSON EIGHT SPECIAL SPORTS SALOON COACHBUILT & EX-SIR EVERARD SCARISBRICK Estimate £38000 - 42000 Registration Number T.B.A. Chassis Number 642204 Engine Number 8844 Engine Capacity 4200 Paint Colour BURGUNDY/BLACK Trim Colour RED MOT Expiry Date JUNE 2007 Thoroughly revamped for 1936, the Hudson Super Eight model range not only gained a new 'Fencer's Mask' radiator grille but also a redesigned chassis complete with 'Rhythmic Ride', 'Tru-Line Steering' and 'Radial Safety Control'. Hailed by Sir Malcolm Campbell in the marque's British advertising campaign as "a really great engineering advancement", the latter feature consisted of two forged steel control arms that prevented the beam front axle from experiencing any lateral movement. Augmented by powerful four-wheel hydraulic drum brakes, the set-up's principal advantages were that it (a) allowed the use of longer, softer semi-elliptic leaf springs, (b) minimised bump steer and (c) gave enhanced anti-dive properties. Boasting all-steel 'Fortress of Safety' bodywork, class-leading cabin space, driver's seat / steering column adjustment and a sophisticated thru-draft fresh air ventilation system, the Super Eight was available in standard (120-inch) or long wheelbase (127-inch) guises. Notably refined, its 254ci (4.2litre) straight-eight engine benefited from a fully-balanced crankshaft, oil cooler, high chrome alloy cylinder block, silicon aluminium alloy pistons and cam roller tappets. Developing 120hp and allied to three-speed manual transmission, the free-revving powerplant provided ample performance. Indeed, a Hudson Super Eight averaged 87.68mph for 24 hours over the Bonneville Salt Flats in October 1936 (just one of the 120 US Stock Car Records that the marque set between 1932 and 1940). Based on The Great West Road in London, Hudson's UK Sales & Service operation had the facility to supply right-hand drive specification cars wearing either standardised American or coachbuilt British bodywork.Finished in maroon with red leather upholstery, this particular right-hand drive example is variously described by the vendor as being in "A1" (bodywork, paintwork) or "A1+" (engine, gearbox, electrical equipment, interior trim, chassis, wheels / tyres) condition. Originally bodied by Coachcraft of London, the handsome four-light saloon is reputedly the only one of its kind still in existence. Said to have been previously owned by Sir Everard Scarisbrick Bart and A. Macleod Esq, the Hudson was laid-up in an Ullapool garage during the 1960s. Left languishing for several decades, the current ownership has seen it treated to a highly detailed restoration. Riding on steel wheels shod with whitewall tyres, this stylish and very possibly unique 1930s Anglo-American is accompanied by a MOT certificate valid until June 2007.
