1920 Argonne Roadster: Last of Its Kind & 100HP Beast!
Step back in time with us as we explore the 1920 Argonne Model D, the last surviving example of its kind!
Join Bobby and Steven at the Fountainhead Antique Auto Museum in Fairbanks, Alaska as they dive into the fascinating history of this ultra-rare roadster. Only 24 Argonne cars were ever made, and this is the only one left-complete with a Rochester-Duesenberg engine that packs a whopping 100 horsepower!
This incredible car was built for performance, with its frame modified to handle the power of the high-performance Duesenberg engine. The Argonne may have only lasted a year in production, but it left a lasting legacy in the automotive world. From its unique Macbeth eye shade headlight lenses to the smart magnetic fuel cap and golf club caddy, this car was ahead of its time.
Watch as we take a closer look at the engine, the interior, and even take it for a spin! Experience the thrill of driving a car from an era when power and performance were just beginning to be defined.
If you’re a classic car enthusiast, this is a video you can’t miss! Discover why this car is a true collector's dream and a standout in automotive history.

    Few people realize that a car with 100HP in 1920 was powerful and it would feel like a lot more power than that today.

  • @harrymusgrave2131
    @harrymusgrave2131 15 днів тому

    You said, priced right. Just how much? $ dollars? Then It can be compared with Ford of the times. And Henry set the right price. I am always interested in the details. A lot of early cars had superior features than Ford. (those that were in the affordable care racket) . It seems like this Hudson ran circles around everything. Fix the starter, no problem. Hudson should have been a top contender? So just how much did it cost?

    • @FountainheadMuseum
      @FountainheadMuseum 15 днів тому

      Thanks for the comment! The 1909 Hudson carried an original price tag of $900 which was a very attractive price for such a high grade vehicle! A Model T Ford of the same year would've run you around $850 for comparison, as Ford was still in the process of streamlining their production to reduce their price tags.

  • @jamesbosworth4191

    The L80 actually would do MORE than 80 MPH. 80 MPH was the guaranteed top speed of the earlier E80, which had a smaller 288 cubic inch engine.
