Top 5 Cars Inside Auburn Cord Duesenberg Museum

Описание: The Auburn Cord Duesenberg Museum in Auburn, Indiana turns prewar automotive history into rolling sculpture. This automotive museum tour walks you through the art deco headquarters where Auburn, Cord, and Duesenberg dreams took shape. If places like the Studebaker Museum or high-end auctions such as Barrett Jackson and Mecum thrill you, this car museum walkthrough adds a layer of corporate history, from the Eckhart family carriage roots through the 1930 headquarters building that still holds the showroom. Jonah, the Director of Marketing and Communications, explains how E. L. Cord took over in the 1920s, reshaped the Auburn line, and launched Cord and Duesenberg as an ascending ladder of elegance, with Auburns around $1,200 and Duesenberg’s reaching about $16,500 in early 1930s money. You hear about Cord’s marketing genius with all white caravans, his push into overseas sales, and his wider life as a transportation and media mogul while your eyes keep drifting back to the marble floors, chrome, and art deco details around the Auburn Cord Duesenberg Museum galleries. The conversation even ties this story to wider American car history, noting how northern Indiana mirrored Detroit with wagon makers turning buggies into horseless carriages, and how many small makers faded while Auburn, Cord, and Duesenberg fought for a place in that era’s version of a global market. Collectors who follow Pebble Beach or Amelia Island will hear the same language of elegance and status in this exhibit guide, yet this building still feels like a working corporate lobby you slipped into after hours, which invites another watch to catch background details.
