Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

Chrome wires, dual sidemounts, padded top, vee windscreen. Concours restoration of a Murphy masterpiece, as attractive as any open Duesie. Especially good to see it done without paintwork embellishment so the shape development can speak for itself, and it does so very eloquently.

Market commentary

A tired and original Willoughby sedan brought $282,000 at Las Vegas in March 98. This Murphy bodied car restored for John Mozart is way more than twice the package.
