1934 Duesenberg La Grande Dual Cowl Phaeton

Only a small number of Duesenberg La Grande Phaetons were ever built. Duesenburg’s philosophy was that its designs should be so original that no Duesey would resemble anything other than another Duesey.  A swept-back, double-cowled Phaeton model featured an inset panel which began at the radiator cap, widened near the cowl, and ended in the door in a reverse curve.  This design, the Le Baron, was supplanted by the La Grande, which had flatter-faced door surfaces, a straightedge waistline and a panel that extended farther across the front door.
