BONNIE: 1926 Hupmobile Model A 4-door sedan

Brothers Robert and Lois Hupp founded the Hupp Motor Car Company in 1909.  Strong styling and build quality were synonymous with Huppmobiles but despite this the Hupp Motor Car Company declared bankruptcy in 1940.

The Model A was produced between 1926 and 1929.  It is the car depicted on the back of the US ten-dollar note, in front of the U.S. Treasury building.  This was the first Hupmobile to have a 6-cyclinder engine.

Our 1926 Hupmobile 4-door sedan is in ivory with wood spoke wheels.  We named our Model A after Bonnie Parker who was part of the gang that was portrayed in the 1967 movie “Bonnie and Clyde”.

  • Al Capone was expanding his empire in Chicago

  • Harry Houdini died of a ruptured appendix
