What color was this JN when new ?

Hello,

car 2587 has chrome-plated bullet headlights, skirted fenders and a hardtop, covered with light brown leather (or leatherette) that makes the top look like a top of a convertible.

Here a some photos of 2587 http://www.duesey2208.com/Datasheets/Mo ... rm2587.htm

Hello,

I don't know, maybe Randy Ema knows that. Regarding to old black and white photos of that car it could have had a darker colour than todays metallic brown. Maybe black or dark red?

Here is the link to the auction catalogue announcement for that car, when you register yourself there, you will find (some historic) photos and the (history) discription of that car. http://www.goodingco.com/car/1935-duese ... se-berline
