Jim, I found the following info in the Duesenberg Registry:


J-574 2607 ? Model J--SWB Murphy Clear-Vision Sedan 6/6 According to Malks, was on an earlier chassis but was rebuilt and installed on this new chassis. Rocky Voss: According to article in ACD newsletter No. 5 1993, existed in 1950s owned by Paul Livingston, painted light grey with blue fenders and trim. Wheels had silver paint. No. 5 1985 ACD newsletter, Ray Wolff mentions its move to the Imperial Palace of Las Vegas, having been owned since 1960 by ACD member Jay Tedrow of Utah. 1993 ACD newsletter No. 9 shows as owned by Frank M*****, with photos depicting its restoration going on at the time. Original color "Royal Maroon" being returned to car. Owner not listed by AHO

I recently met a fellow by the name of Glenn Dwyer from Des Moines, Iowa who said that he owned this Duesenberg from around 1958 to 1960.

Glenn said the Duesenberg was very hard to get rid of at that time but it was eventully sold to a Dr. Jack Tedrow who kept it for 25 to 30 years before selling it at Auction.

I believe Glenn said he got $2500.00 for it.

Anyone know the rest of the story B-4 or after Glenns ownership or have a picture of this particular car????

Would be interesting to know where it is now.

Thanks. Jim
