Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

Supercharged, Pilot Rays, cast outside exhaust header, sliding sunroof, skirts. Superbly restored some time ago for Rick Carroll and still in exceptional condition. Body built in 1934 for Dr. Seeley J. Mudd and has remained one of the best known Duesenbergs since. Not exactly beautiful, it is more organic, an expression of power, and even menace, that is visceral in its appeal.

Market commentary

This seems a relatively modest price, even with the buyers commission tacked on, for such a well known and superbly presented Duesenberg.
