Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Market commentary

Undoubtedly a fine example, however its not fresh and thats what todays buyers are looking for. There is no shortage of Duesenberg Murphy Convertibles, most of them in comparable condition, and buyers are able to pick and choose, looking for bargains based on slight differences. That said, the bid is undoubtedly light for car of such quality and clear provenance.
