Expertise

I have extensive knowledge of the Hupp Motor Car Company and specifically, the Hupmobile Skylark. I also have a fair amount of knowledge and experience with the Graham Hollywood, which was virtually an identical car to the Hupp Skylark.

Experience in the area

I personally own three Hupmobile Skylarks, and have published several articles in the Hupmobile Club newsletters on the history of the company.

Education/Credentials

Graduate of General Motors Institute (now known as Kettering University)
