Metallic Black & Silver
A car beyond your
wildest dreams in a masterpiece from the past! Inspired by the Art Deco
movement. Created in the preferred collector's scale of 1:24. Operating features
include steering wheel that turns the front wheels and doors, hood and trunk
that really open and close. Romance, mystery and fate captured in one
spectacular car!
Commissioned by a wealthy French businessman for his lover, the luxurious,
one-of-a-kind Duesenberg, along with its designers, mysteriously disappeared
during World War II. Amazingly, over 50 years later, the grandsons of the
original designers stumbled across their grandfathers' original plans hidden
away in a remote barn. They rebuilt the 1939 Duesenberg Coupe Simone, a
masterpiece from the past, in the form of an extraordinary die-cast model,
capturing all the mystery and perfection of the original. Assembled by hand to
capture every nuance, the Duesenberg is a marvel to behold: the bold, sensuous
sweep of the fenders, the Art Deco style grille, the luxuriously appointed
interior, the alluring paint work. It's the definitive die-cast model of the car
that never was...for the story of the Coupe Simone is fiction, created by the
designers of Franklin Mint Precision Models.
