Yes, Countess Ingrahm had hidden water tanks specified on her build sheet as she used her Duesenberg for desert excursions.

When asked his opinion on the racing cars built by W.O. Bentley, Ettore Bugatti remarked "Le camion plus vite du monde!" ("He builds the world's fastest lorries!")

Hi All,

I'm currently looking for high quality recent photos of J-497, the Kirchhoff Town Car Limousine, however, all I can find are either the black and white builder's photos, the tiny thumbnails from a Christie's auction catalog or a blurry photo from 2001 with the rear door open.

Can anyone assist? :)


Thanks,

~ Brian
