The Duesenberg was one of the most glorious American Automobile makes of the late 1920s and early 1930s. These large powerful automobiles were the work of an outstanding engineer, Frederick Samuel Duesenberg. Duesenberg automobiles reached the height of technical perfection and were owned by royalty, Hollywood stars and business magnates. This Model had a straight eight water cooled engine with four overhead valves to each cylinder. The Bore was 95 mm and stroke was 120.5 mm. A Schebler two barrel carburetor was used. Very few cars could match its acceleration figure of 0-100 MPH in 21 seconds and a maximum speed of 118 MPH.
