Duesy Roadster in Switzerland was created by jeraoul
Hello everybody
I've recently driven a Duesenberg J in Switzerland. Even if I'm a motorcar journalist, needless to say that this was the dream of a lifetime? Even on twisty montain roads, the Duesy is a wonderful car. The experience was far too short (only 30 minutes). But this was enough to get some informations on the huge power available, even at 500 rpm in third gear, the efficiency of the brakes, and the softness of the steering, really unbelivable on such a big pre-war car.
The only problem with this car is that nobody has been able to tell me who was responsible for the body. Now, it's a well made roadster, but I suspect that this is not its original body. Sorry, I've no pictures to join. But I can quote the chassis and engine numbers : chassis 2227, engine J135. I'll be happy to collect information about this car, in order to write a proper article in the french Sport-Auto.
If someone could help me... Thanks in advance
