In your second photo the Hudson V8 badge is visible on the front wing. I believe the Terraplane was just a down-market Hudson, therefore more cheaply fitted. The bumper without overriders made me think perhaps Terraplane, but the external horns gave me some doubt. Certainly, as you say, Hudson.

Kerry.
Hi Kerry,
Actually, based on the quality of the quiz photo and without benefit of the second one your ID was excellent. The bonnet louver detail is a little different on the Terraplane but that was hardly discernible in the original photo.

So again I say "Great job"! :thumbsup:
And yes, as seen above there actually was a Terraplane pickup, though I doubt it was marketed in Europe. Love to have one of those to cruise around in today.
Cheers,
Max

Hi Dirk,
Yes, I understand. Strangely this truck was still on the strength of it's pre-capture nation, so, vaguely, a WW2 vehicle.
You have a fantastic archive of survivors, many that most people would doubt that they still exist.
Kerry.
Max,
Thank you, it was not certain, but I should have spotted the differences.
Cheers,
Kerry.

Thanks kerry
But sadly most of my own pictures from the cars i took in the eighties nineties aso dont exist no more
And sadly i didnt touch them at all so nothing was saved from them
And because i m making a bureau in our house from an old mercedes i have to buy each part. Stupid of course
I could it have for free
That s life
But now when i open my pc behind that old steering wheel and look trough the front window of the mercedes i m already having fun before looking at axis

Hi Markus,
You have it. Amazing to think that these old ladies were still in service in 1940.
Over to you,
Cheers,
Kerry.
