They had a very nice big straight 8 which had a control on the dash to give freewheel on the transmission. Ray Wolff once had one with an experimental centrifugal supercharger. (Ray was the Duesenberg historian). The car still exists, and in 1980 was in the Harrah collection. Ivan Saxton

aussie610 Member Registered: 02/28/06 Posts: 224 Loc: Melbourne, Australia	1929 Graham Paige. Can tell the year by the radiator and the fins on the headlights. It doesnt appear to have the extra supports below the lights (Just the headlight bar) so that would make it a model 612 or 615. Could tell which if I could see the size of the brake drums. Also if it was a 612 it would have had a 3 speed gearbox and a 615 would have had a 4 speed. Have a look at the site in my signature. I am restoring a 612 at the moment. It is a nice picture, do you have any more? I just realised my web address isnt in mey sig...
