This Model A Duesenberg is built on the shorter, 135″ wheelbase chassis and is equipped with opera coupe bodywork from the McNear Body Company, which was in operation from 1911 to 1942 and offered coachbuilding services for Rolls-Royce, Cadillac, Lincoln, Packard, and Pierce-Arrow, among others. The aluminum body is finished in Brewster Green, while steel fenders are painted black. The car was restored in the 1970s and also features a green leather fixed roof with landau irons, as well as a raked windscreen, single brake light, Bausch & Lomb headlamps, and dual side-mount spares. In 2019 Jeff’s Resurrections of Taylor, Texas repaired the brake light, touched-up the paint, polished the brightwork, and installed a new radiator cap seal.
