When you see a Duesenburg engine it makes you wonder why we are not more advanced today.
Hope it's OK to upload the pictures I took at the museum.

Ignore the grumpy guy standing in front of the 300SL. He was bummed out after the museum told him he couldn't take it home!!!

Unbelievably I didn't take any pictures of a 810 or 812. I was so caught up with the early 30s cars.
