Working on a Duesy

[Robi]

I will send pictures once I figure out how. I have a work in progress on my daddy's Duesenberg being fitted with some original parts we just picked up in Oregon and along side of it is our Versa SL. Wow it shows how small the V is beside what some people (very rich) drove in the late 20's and 30's. but the D cost less in those dollars that what we paid in 2007 bucks. The engine is as long as our V. ..... well almost.

That's awesome! Where did your dad get ahold of a Duesenberg? I'd love to see the photos.
