By all accounts the Ultramatic sales to Nash/Hudson were Twin Ultramatics.

What a nice collection of cars, the Hudson & Nash, Continental, and of course the Airflow, a 1934 I believe. The more Chrysler tried diminish the original Airflow styling in succeeding years, the less appealing it got, IMO, and 1934 was the best. Have any of you ever had the occasion of seeing one of the two LWB Crown Imperial Airflows (the Major Bowes car, or it's companion)? Absolutely stunning interiors, just reeking of art deco. Without much arguement the Airflow was the best engineered new car on the American market in 1934.
