Vintage Cars: 1929 Hupmobile Century Coupe 2 dr 4 place, 1929 hupmobile, exhaust manifolds

Question
Does the 8cyl 118 WB have a longer hood than the 6 cyl 114 WB? Did all the Century A models {6} have dual sidemounts or just the deluxe?

Answer
Thank you for your very positive feedback, it was most gratifying. I'd like to keep in contact, and perhaps talk you into joining the Hupmobile club!

There is a project underway to reproduce the intake and exhaust manifolds for the early Century 8 cars, of which yours would be one. They're going to be pretty expensive, but they are fragile parts that quite often crack (being 80 years old!!). Things like this are some of the reasons to join the club, for only $26 per year!!

Please let me know whether you are interested or not!! I hope to hear from you and keep the correspondence going.

Regards,
