Central Illinois | Most likely a Deusy. Each one was custom built for the buyer but had a basically good frame and engine underneath the custom body work. Many of them were extremely streamlined looking and the styling era matches the one in the picture. For a while chromed flexible exhausts coming through the hood were fairly common among them. They were the origin of the expression that is a Deusy.

Beer Collins, Colorado (there is no fort) | It's not a Duesenburg- It's a 1939 Delahaye T165 Roadster. Here's the coolest of the art deco streamlined motorcycles- 78 years before the Vision-1930 KJ Henderson

Orlando, FL | Nice Trike. Just be sure to use Vic Oil or you'll have clutch slippage. And change those tires to Avon's for better handling. |

Danbury, Connecticut | Actually if you follow the link Jeff put up it seems to be a CUSTOM 1930 KJ HENDERSON ADAPTATION, the car is the Delahaye. It is a little misleading but both a very cool looking. |
