Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

1 of 3 boat tail 2 seaters built, original and unrestored, 2 owners. Continental 8 powered. Woodlites, luggage rack, hidden spare, driving light, altimeter. Very well preserved car used regularly until Dorothy Rumseys death last year.

Market commentary

Very fine example of a rare (273 built) and high quality limited production marque thats never been ignored or abused. duPonts were built by the gunpowder, not chemicals, branch. Handsome price for a handsome car, and a good value for the new owner..
