Vintage Cars: Hupmobile frame, seat coupe, cylinder model


Question
In cleaning our "junk yard" left by my inlaws on the family farm, we found a frame of a Hupmobile and would like some information about it. It has a plate labeled Hupmobile with the VIN list as M 13227.
Can you give us any information on this particular car, model, year, etc.?
Thank you,

Answer
Yes, this would indicate that the car was a 1928 Model M Hupmobile, an eight cylinder model known as the "Century Eight". This car came in a number of body styles, a 2-seat coupe with or without rumble seat, a 4 door 5 passenger sedan, a 4 door 5 passenger touring car, a two door close-coupled sedan, sometimes known today as a victoria, and 4 door touring and sedan bodies on a stretched wheelbase for 7 passenger bodies.

Where are you located? Are there other pieces of the car still left? Engine? Axles? Wheels? Body? I'm sure that there are people in the Hupmobile club that would gladly take these items off your hands.
