THE RAREST OF DUESENBERGS
This 1927 Duesenberg Model X Boat-Tail Roadster, a one-off creation built for the 1927 New York Auto Salon, is arguably one of the most significant and influential motorcars ever built in the United States. It is the styling prototype for the Auburn Speedster, which appeared a year later. Its design, both aesthetically and mechanically, was the seed for which enthusiasm grew for the sleek, high-performance automobiles. Launching America’s passion for personal sports cars.
Strictly a show car, this sleek roadster lacks common amenities such as windshield wipers, a convertible top and side windows. This automobile was originally purchased by the Chicago hotel magnate Edwin Kirkeby, who may have seen it at the New York auto show.
Over the decades, this Duesenberg fell into disrepair. It was under the guidance of its donor that it returned to its former glory during a four-year restoration.
This Duesenberg Model X engine has a displacement of 260 cubic-inches and produces 100-horsepower, reaching a top speed of 90 miles-per-hour. The sleek body was constructed by McFarlan, a coachbuilder from Connorsville, Indiana, and supplier of Auburn automotive bodies.

A steering yoke in the Tesla Model X Plaid instead of a steering wheel. Don't know if that works great when making a full turn...
