An original Duesenberg in relatively good condition is finally seeing the light of day after nearly six decades in storage.
There have been some high profile Duesenberg barn finds over the years, including asedan pulled out of a New York City parking garage in 2005, and a Model X found in a suburban California garage around that time. Both are now in Jay Leno's collection.
It would seem there aren't many lost Duesenbergs left to find, which makes this car all the more remarkable. Of the 481 Model J chassis built, it's one of just 25 Murphy convertibles with what was called a"disappearing" top that was stowed under a tonneau cover. It was also capable of 88 mph in second gear. Eat your heart out, DeLorean.
Given this car's garage-find status, the plan is to exhibit it as-is for the time being, with a full concours-quality restoration in the future.
