Detroit_Electric Posted August 21, 2019 Share Posted August 21, 2019 I used the wayback machine to retrieve some of the photos and text from the Hemmings ad, I hope you don't mind Duesenberg early 1930s AAA Dreyer Sprint Car, originally powered by a Rochester Duesenberg Walking Beam engine. All original, history known from new. Built by Pop Dreyer for racing great Don Moore who in the 1920s drove for the Kline Kar team that used Duesenberg and RD engines in their cars. Don installed the WB engine himself. Walking Beam engine blew up in the 1940s and was discarded. Was replaced with the current 1941 Ford flathead six engine. Only WB engine race car known to exist. Locate a RD engine and install or display with the car. Shown Amelia Island Concours 2010. Lots of original photos, history. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alsfarms Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 Nice support information on the Dreyer Special! To bad a Duesenberg engine can't be located! Al Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George Albright Posted August 22, 2019 Author Share Posted August 22, 2019 Agreed. No leads yet. Would be a $200-250k car with a Duesenberg walking beam engine either in it or displayed with it. Thanks George 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alsfarms Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 Even a few pieces of such an engine would be nice to display with the racer. Who knows, maybe you could run down the original drawings/patterns or core boxes and build one. Al Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Detroit_Electric Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 I assume you have searched and found this online so maybe it isn't relevant but it seems like someone made what you are looking for http://theoldmotor.com/?p=20330 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George Albright Posted August 22, 2019 Author Share Posted August 22, 2019 Thanks for attaching that very informative article. The Duesenberg Walking Beam motor rights were sold to the Rochester Motor Co. around 1918. They modified the WB engine design and sold Rochester Duesenberg engines as a high end option in circa 1918-22 cars like Roamer, Revere, Kenworthy,etc. Hard to find a loose engine. Several are in passenger cars. My race car is the only known race car existing that originally had a Rochester Duesenberg WB engine installed in it when built.

alsfarms Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 Looks like George needs to loosen up on some funds and get a block built, then the head, then the valve train, then.........no more bank account! What a dream however!. Al Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
