About 30 years ago I was told about this car in Erie Penn. Never did pursue it, that is all could have been just a rumor.

In The Timeless Classic on page 187 it says the car was built by Ab Jenkins and Auggie Duesenberg for Ab Jenkins personal use.
In my humble opinion, Buehrig got it right the first time!

Cord Custom / Prototype Mormon Meteor? was created by Brian R. Peterson

Hi All,

I recently came across this photo of Ab Jenkins standing next to what appears to be an amalgamation of a Cord 810, Auburn 851 Speedster and Duesenberg Mormon Meteor, yet I can find NO history or reverse search information regarding this car, can anyone help me shed more light on this one?

Thanks,

~ Brian
