Could you also help us with this one? We know its part of the current California Car Design exhibit at the Petersen...Thanks Steve Derus
It seems that as of yet, we have not identified this car. Does anyone know what car it is?

How I want to go, incidentally.
Hello,
looks like the car is on sale at the Gooding auction in Arizona in January.
Is that correct, that a supercharger was later added?
Does someone know at what time that work was done (Original SC/or Replica SC)?

Chris,
in your registry I see that the chassis 2372 should be LWB, but the car in the picture seems to be SWB, or am I wrong?

Originally had engine #J-500. The two cars switched engines in the early 1950s. Both cars are today owned by the Petersen Museum and I'm not sure if the engines have been switched back or not.

Hi, Mike,
Own it, have scanned the Duesenberg section but not had a chance to read it cover-to-cover yet. I'm an English major so my time for pleasure reading is much more limited than I would like. It's earmarked for this summer or, if I can pull it off, over Christmas.

The design of that car is wonderful. With the top down, it looks just like a stretched Murphy convertible coupe, not like a four-passenger car at all unless you get close-up.

White car is #J-564 / 2589, SJN Rollston Convertible Coupe.
Background is #J-151 / 2132, Murphy Sport Sedan.
All owned by Bill Parfet, whose collection I could live in quite comfortably for a year or nine.
