Duesenberg SJ Lagrande Dual-Cowl Pheaton from 1935.
The price of this car was $8500 for the chassis with motor and $12000 for the bodywork. In the same time you could buy a new Ford for $ 500. Owned by people like Clark Gable, Greta Garbo and king Alfonso XIII of Spain the car had a compressor and could reach a speed of 210 km/h. From this model 35 where made. With thanks to the Louwman car museum.
One for weekend reflections here.
It's still in very good condition, quite beautiful in a mechanical sense.
