Vehicle Description
This vehicle is titled in Florida as a 1938 Duesenberg. The engine from a 1992 Ford pickup truck is fully remanufactured. C6 automatic transmission. The frame was made using a 1935 Lincoln Model K. Rear axel is from a 1979 Mark 5 Lincoln. Front axel is from a 1952 Chevrolet Truck. Power steering box was from a 1982 Toyota truck. Fully restored 20" Cadillac wheels with 80 spokes. Mold for front brake was taken of Howard Hughes Duesenberg to hide disc brakes. Side pipes are original Duesenberg fromJ212 Mudd Car. Hood and side screens, bumpers were custom made. It has turn signals, and front and rear running lights. Truly a one-of-a-kind piece.
Autohaus of Naples is honored to present this magnificent 1938 Duesenberg SSJ Replica — a breathtaking recreation of one of the most revered and elusive automobiles ever built. The original Duesenberg SSJ was not just rare; it was mythical. Only two were ever made, each custom-built for Hollywood royalty — Gary Cooper and Clark Gable — and both became symbols of opulence, power, and American coachbuilding at its absolute peak. This handcrafted replica captures every ounce of that legacy, delivering unmatched presence, style, and drama with modern drivability and timeless elegance.
Every line of this Duesenberg SSJ replica is a celebration of Art Deco-era design. From the impossibly long hood and sweeping fenders to the exposed side exhausts and bold upright grille, this machine commands attention from every angle. It rolls with confidence on wide whitewall tires and intricate wire wheels, while the dual side-mounted spares, chromed radiator shell, and classic split windshield complete the look of a car that once ruled over Pebble Beach lawns and Beverly Hills boulevards. The scale, proportion, and presence are faithful to the original — this is not a mere tribute; it’s a rolling sculpture.
Beneath that long hood lies a dependable and smooth-running modern V8 engine paired to an automatic transmission, offering the reliability and ease of use that makes this replica truly drivable. Unlike the original 1930s behemoth, which required a heavy hand and a mechanical mind, this example allows you to enjoy the grandeur of the era without sacrificing comfort, usability, or peace of mind. Whether you're parading down Fifth Avenue or gliding through coastal roads, this SSJ replica drives with grace and authority.
The interior is a masterpiece of vintage flair and modern craftsmanship. Rich leather seating, polished woodgrain accents, classic gauges, and chrome trim details surround the driver in luxury. The cockpit is both commanding and comfortable, with thoughtful details throughout that stay true to the spirit of 1930s elegance. From the banjo-style steering wheel to the curved dashboard and soft carpeted floors, it’s clear this vehicle was built to honor the past while embracing the present.
This Duesenberg SSJ replica is more than just a nod to a golden age — it’s a gateway to a lifestyle of elegance and showstopping style. Whether you're a seasoned collector or someone with a taste for the extraordinary, this car delivers the drama and exclusivity of a seven-figure original, without the anxiety of fragile pre-war mechanics. It’s a perfect centerpiece for private collections, vintage rallies, or concours events — or simply as the most stunning way to arrive anywhere, anytime.
At Autohaus of Naples, we specialize in vehicles that speak louder than statistics — cars that tell stories, spark conversations, and represent eras of greatness. If you’ve ever dreamed of commanding the same road presence as Hollywood’s elite and owning a car that looks like it leapt off a 1930s movie set, this Duesenberg SSJ replica is your chance.
This isn’t just a car. It’s a legend reborn. A statement in chrome and confidence. A symbol of bold design and timeless distinction.
It’s time to drive your dream.
