Great Cars: DUESENBERG

The ultimate, the top, the crème de la crème - the builders of the Duesenberg defied the odds and entered the Depression era with the most costly, powerful and daring auto ever built. If you were a king, a maharajah, a movie star, a gangster, or simply very rich - you had to have a Duesy. It was hands-down, simply the best and fastest car on the road. It even inspired a term, "it’s a Duesy (Doozie)." It was gone by the end of the decade, but what a ride! Fewer than 500 of the classic Model J’s were built between 1928 and the company's collapse in 1938. But over 400 of these desirable autos remain in the collections of lucky owners who still will say, "it’s a Duesy."

In the early 1950's I was visiting my grandparents in Tekamah Nebraska, and their was a used car lot on the outskirts of this small town, he had about 30 cars for sale, in the front row was a Dusey Convertible, holes in the top and in rough but drive-able shape for $1200.00, Dad wanted to buy it, but my mother vetoed the purchase for good reasons (my father was not very mechanical etc) Even today, I wonder, what ever became of that magnificent automobile.

Read all this. I was privileged to ride in Jimmy Walker's Duesenberg, it was his as the mayor of New York, a 1932 model, and also rode in a 1937 Cord. The Duesenberg weighed 6700 pounds, which required 6-ply tires. You could bang your fist against the fender, and it didn't ring or budge. It had two 8-day clocks, an altimeter, and a window that rolled up behind the driver, so that he could not hear the conversations behind him. The neatest part, which has never been adapted yet by the motor industry, was that to change the oil, you reached into the engine and turned a handle, just like the one on your kitchen or bathroom sink, and the oil drained out, no wrench required, or sliding under the car. The designers are still 87 years behind on that one. The car was once run in a racing frame for 24 straight hours at the Indy track, just to see the performance of it. It was not hurt in any way. It could do about 90 in second gear, that's right, 90. What a beast!!! It had a 320 hp engine, bigger than any of the planes of the day, and it was polished.

There's a perfect Cord 810 in my home town which caused my obsession with Cord, Auburn, and Duesenbergs at an early age. The owner drives it quite often to this day! Then in college, the President of the school owned 3 Duesenbergs (a fact I didn't know when I applied there). He'd bring them out once a year for Homecoming and I also got to admire them hands on in storage.

When my father was growning up in the mid west his next door neighbor, a doctor, purchased a new Cord 810. When I learned about the Cord in my youth I spoke to my father about this magical car and thats when he told me of the Cord his neighbor had. Retractable headlamps, super charged straight 8 engine, and front wheel drive I found it hard to imagine these things were in production when they were. I am not that far from the Auburn Indiana and planning a visit hopefully to see all the classic autos but mostly the 810.

This short piece leaves out many items about the Duesenbergs. I've read a reason for failure is that they never patented many of their innovative design features. The first hydraulic four-wheel brake system could have made the brothers millions. They weren't interested in such things. Of course the depression didn't help sales, but so much more could be said about these amazing automobiles.

@chuckschillingvideos
@chuckschillingvideos 4 года назад
Duesenberg didn't fail. EL Cord failed. the Cord car business failed because E.L. speculated and lost his ass. Had nothing whatsoever to do with patents. If you want to suggest some way that Duesenberg may have helped stave off its demise, perhaps if they could have built a model or two that didn't cost a king's ransom - but that's what the Cord line of vehicles was supposed to do.

In the ideal world, if they had only lasted a little longer into the 1940s, they may have received the contract for the Rolls Royce Merlin engine instead of Packard, which would have propelled them into the 1950s. Kind of skipped over the Duesenberg's first stop after leaving Iowa, St. Paul, MN before moving to New York.

Bentley which used to be owned by R-R is no longer connected with them and belongs to the VW group.

You really can't say Deusenberg were the best automobiles, because this media is global, not just American. Rolls-Royce has that reputation, globally, and is a car builder for English Royalty, in a class by itself. You have to admit, a lot of the European cars that Americans are into come from all those James Bond movies. What made Rolls-Royce famous was building a car with a transmission that set the standard for endurance, winning the first cross-country race they entered. My Scottish ancestors invented MacPherson Struts, called shock absorbers, and pavement for roads, called macadam, MacAdam. I could go on. If you had a car, why not make driving one nice?

@@gerrynightingale9045 Here's an example of what I'm talking about: The Ford Mustang has been produced at a nearly continuous rate since 1964, yes? This is despite the fact that the Mustang is nothing more than a tarted-up Falcon that reeked of cheapness. It sold to the public based on a false image of glamour and prestige, a mindless throng of popularity that only rivaled the contemporary Beatles. Now, think of how many good, or even great, cars were removed from the market before they were due because of factors that have nothing to do with the cars themselves. Such examples include the Studebaker Avanti, AMC Javelin, Packard Caribbean, and the Nash-Healey and those are only the domestic cars I can name off the top of my head. There are plenty more instances out there.

@@gerrynightingale9045 You have completely missed my point. I explicitly stated that the cars were removed from the market before they were due because of factors that have NOTHING, NADA, ZERO to do with the cars themselves. None of the examples that I gave were shoddily built for their time period. I know this because I have personally seen multiple (and unrestored) examples throughout my life and noticed these details about them. Also, it has been proven on multiple occasions that the Big Three deliberately sidelined most of the Independent brands through unfair means. The most blatant example was through the 1953 Chevrolet-Ford Price War, a movement initiated by FoMoCo in that model year to gain more market share at the expense of Chevrolet. It was planned that it would have the additional effect of seriously wounding Chrysler and basically crippling any surviving Independent marques and that's exactly what happened. It resulted in the Independents being forced to merge or die (with dubious results).

There are MANY incorrect statements in this video. For example Duesenbergs were never built in Auburn, Indiana. Augie had nothing to do with the 810 Cord. Being a docent at the Auburn Cord Duesenberg Automobile Museum this video is fingernails on a blackboard.

In response to increasing cases of COVID-19, the New York Metro Region was moved to Critical Level (red). The New York Police Service has begun triaging calls from the public regarding gathering sizes in private residences and will dispatch resources to intervene as required. Those who continue to gather in contravention of public health orders may be subject to enforcement action. Fines for those found breaking the new gathering restrictions now stand at $1,296, up from $486, and police will be taking down the names of those in any gatherings to “pass on” to local health officials. Family , friends and outspoken citizen are encouraged to call out large gatherings to 'ensure the safety and wellbeing of the public, and we will continue to remind people of the measures they can take to ensure their own safety by making that call. Listen Citizen: COVID-19 is an unprecedented challenge. We must all do our part to protect the health and safety of our communities and that means obeying emergency orders issued by public health authorities. Rights and liberties can themselves sometimes be in conflict with life and security of persons in the current pandemic. We must do our part to achieve the pressing and compelling objectives of the state in protecting our citizens from a deadly virus. These are, no doubt, very fearful times. Care needs to be taken not to worsen the already precarious situation of our homeless, prisoners, those seeking refugee status, sex workers, drug addicts and other vulnerable and marginalized communities. Let's not give the COVID-19 virus that power. It is causing enough havoc; let it not infect the rule of law.

@@TheIamIrving Trump's grandfather was a German. There is a difference between LEGAL immigration and those who sneak into a country without documentation (i.e. ILLEGALLY) and/or stand at the border and demand to be admitted (after arriving in a "march" orchestrated by Marxist globalists) BTW: No welfare was given to immigrants during the time that Trump's grandfather came to America.

Maybe this car's value is in it's legends, like when someone bought a land rover instead land cruiser or just cheap suzuki katana. Also part of it is because it is your duty as a patriotic American to preserve American legend (I mean other than speed Jay Leno most likely pointed out how great it is as an American car).

Bob, yes, many people think they are great cars. But not because of their driving experience. They are great cars because they are beautiful. You go to a museum to appreciate art not for some kind of modern multi-media experience. You love Duesenbergs because they represent beauty of the 1920s and 30s.
