The 1930 front wheel drive Cord L-29 Brooks Stevens Speedster is a one-of-a-kind Cord that was designed by Brooks Stevens in the mid-thirties and the resulting body design was built by the Cord Corporation's Limousine Body Shop. Brooks Stevens was a prolific engineer/architect and designer of all things transportation (including the Oscar Meyer Wienermobile). He kept that car in his personal museum until his death. It exists today in a private collection.

Beautiful photos of an amazing model.

I’d seen this car in person just before the model was announced. I had to have it.

The 1:1 was so incredible. I stood next to it while it was running for almost 10 minutes. That engine purr is a sound I will never forget.

@perrone1 Okay Tony...have it, love it. Incidentally Brooks Stevens was also the founder CEO of the company that produced the Excaliber automobile.
