Hudson Terraplane

For some reason, Aunt Renue and Uncle Erwin were staying with us. They had just purchased a new Hudson Terraplane car, but it came without the front and rear bumpers.  This was right after the war and the car factories were changing back from making war supplies and this was one of the first cars made after the war.  The dealer told them that as soon as the bumpers came in they would put them on for them.  I believe that Hudson came without a spare tire, but I’m not sure.
