1930 Hupmobile Bonneville Salt Flats Roadster

[Cord Blomquist]

I'm seeking any information available on a 1930 Hupmobile modified by the Niederhut Carriage Company for racing on the Bonneville Salt Flats. This custom roadster is a one-of-a-kind and I'm looking for any documentation available, especially pictures of the car on the salt flats.

 

 

Here's a link to my current write-up of the history of the car for White Glove Collection of La Crosse, WI: http://whiteglovecollection.com/vehicles-for-sale/1930-hupmobile-bonneville-salt-flats-roadster/

Thank  you  for  sharing the  fine  pic  and  information on  this  fine  Hupmobile.  Here is  a pic of  another Hupp  racer.  A  Hupp Club  member  owns  this  car and  he  lives in  South  Africa. He  gave me this  pic  at  Hershey  2015

Hi Cord,

 

Very cool.

 

I wish a friend of mine were still alive; I'd have you talk with him.  He was big into the Salt Flats & probably would be able to help you out.

 

Instead, here is a link to a group that MAY be able to assist ... I don't know for sure, tho:
