About Hagerty’s condition ratingsClose

An excellent older concours restoration for Bob Bahre using original body panels except for the four lost doors. Still fresh and in nearly concours condition. 1987 A C D Best in Show, CCCA winner. One of only two Walker LaGrande Torpedo Phaetons, considered by at least some to be originally supercharged. Frame now from 2470, current supercharger from J555. A wonderful, beautiful Duesenberg.
