Hudson Terraplanes, 1932


 

-- Amelia Earhart's Terraplane --


This is the Story of
an 80 year old car, that found it's way to a home in California.

Earhart AE's 1932 Terraplane
in front of a 1931 railroad station


In 1932 Amelia Earhart was given the latest Hudson Terraplane after speaking at the Auto Prosperity Drive.

In the newsreel of the big event, Amelia Earhart can be seen christening the new model with gasoline. What is not immediately clear from the footage is that upon conclusion of the ceremony, Ms. Earhart drove that very car off the lot. The car eventually went to auction after the death of Earhart’s husband in 1950, and was lost -- much like it's owner.

Now, over 80 years after that famous christening, only 14 of the original Hudson Terraplanes of that year are left. From that day, it's one of these rare eyewitnesses to history that sits in a garage where it gets tender, loving care.
