Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

Chrome wire wheels, dual sidemounts, Pilot Rays, wide whitewalls, luggage rata, jump seats, rollup divider. Sharp paint, interior, chrome, glass and interior wood. CCCA Senior 2389, Premier. Seats are lightly creased but otherwise in near show quality condition. Reportedly one of the best running, driving Duesenbergs around. ACD certified origil body, chassis and engine.

Market commentary

Reported sold by Kruse at Auburn Fall in 1998 for $456,800. Offered by RM at Amelia in 1999 where it was a no sale at $540,000. Reported sold again at Auburn Fall in 2000 for $583,000, freshly restored by RM Restorations. The result here recognizes the rarity (one of only three built, two surviving) and attractiveness of the body and the quality of its restoration and care.
