Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

Firewall 2174. Chrome wire wheels, blackwall tires, dual sidemounts, Tan leather covered trunk, wind wings. A beautiful automobile with a beautiful restoration. Not fresh, but barely used. Long Canadian history with several colorful figures. Original frame, engine and firewall, known history from new.

Market commentary

Reported sold at RM in Arizona in 2008 for $1,760,000 in essentially the same condition as it is today, just a little fresher and with 16 fewer miles on the odometer than it displays today. Its impossible not to like this car, even with its rather clunky rear mounted trunk, a rare example of an open Duesenberg that looks better with the top up than with it down.
