Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

Spectacular car with chrome wire wheels, dual sidemounts, outside exhaust, dual windshields, leather covered luggage trunk. Excellent paint, interior and chrome (How excellent is it I wrote it twice in my notes.) Rebodied by Billings, scored a 2nd at Pebble Beach. Chassis number not known.

Market commentary

It may be a repro, but it is an outstanding repro that will never fail to draw a crowd. The bidders in Hershey were pretty sophisticated and had three Duesenberg Js to choose from. They apparently balked at this repro body and put their muscle behind the other two, an entirely rational decision.
