Yours, for a cool one point one million dollars. Say it in pounds sterling, it sounds less.
Six hundred and sixty thousand pounds.

Is the Deusenberg one of those 'must have' icons? There is no argument that it is a work of art, a real beauty, but surely some of it's contemporaries have much the same appeal, yet come nowhere near the price of the Doozy.
Here's a few that can also turn heads. I'll leave you to figure out the models. There are so many from that period, when car designers had a free reign and no wind tunnel.

GHT,

Lets just say that if given the opportunity to own a Doozy, I would not turn it down. But at that point money is no object. Right now I have my hands full with my own version of a Doozy.

My wife's grandfather had one very similar to the first one. Geez, I wish they had shipped it over here when they moved. :doh:

Mike so you are the owner of this 1983 replica? It has Brit registration number plates, but has been shipped backed to the USA. You kept that quiet.

Big Man, I love seeing that thing each time you post a pic. That is a sweety! Engine bay pics?



It has new plugs and wires since this photo was taken, but everything else is about the same. I believe it has the original 218 flat head six motor.

Frank, that is a really nice looking 31 Tudor. First Model A? Check out the Ford Barn, there you will find a wealth of knowledge about these cars. I love driving mine around-except for the stop lights going from green to red in .5 seconds.
