Equipment
420/265hp, 3-speed, wire wheels, Firestone tires, dual sidemount spares with mirrors, cowl lights, dual chrome horns, suicide front doors, boot cover, robe rail, engine-turned dash, cloth and leather upholstery.
Condition
Original engine, crankshaft, chassis, and body. Striking paint finish that still looks stunning from a short distance, but there are cracks behind the front bumper and light blistering on top of the doors. Nearly spotless underneath. Good, lightly worn interior a former show car that’s still beautiful but wouldn’t take home a trophy.
Market commentary
Its Murphy coachwork also is exceptionally handsome and it is no surprise that it brought a superior price appropriate to its impression and provenance. It's a Duesenberg that's been around for ages and that everyone knows and respects.
