Just another reason I'm glad I blocked Jay Leno's phone number.

It might be too high tech for most here. Looks like it has one of those new fangled starter motors.

I could pull it off, but the wife is borderline staying anyway, so no problem there.

What oil is in it now?

Maybe steer clear...RockAuto only has spark plugs -1 resister, 1 regular- for it.

Looks like a prime candidate for Restore and Protect.

That is a truly magnificent car! A dual cowl phaeton - and a Duesenberg at that.

We be needing a few 3pc suits and 2 tone shoes for that!
Toss in a few fedoras

It's weird how some of these really expensive cars are found in weird places.

Not for me. No air bags.

In all seriousness. If I were a very wealthy car collector I would want that car. It is fantastic.........especially the history behind it.

The color scheme is TOPS.
What was automotive paint even made from in 1931?

I read once that crushed lapis lazuli was used to make delicious blue paint.

I'd love to see the crank up cowl.

Pb (Lead)?

Pb (Lead)?

Nitrocellulose lacquer was commonly used. Various pigments, including lead, were used in the lacquer, but those pigments were less toxic than the lacquer itself, I believe.

Don't lick the paint.
