Jenkins Mormon Meteor III
Ab (David Abbott) Jenkins was a devout Mormon who did not drink or smoke. He was interested in pushing endurance records beyond what his Mormon Meteor II racer could achieve. The stock Duesenberg J chassis of the Mormon Meteor II simply could not handle its heavy, 750 hp (559 kW) Curtiss Conqueror V-12 aircraft engine. In 1937, Jenkins commissioned Augie Duesenberg to design a new car able to accommodate the 1,570 cu in (25.7 L) Curtiss Conqueror or an Allison V-1710 engine. The new endurance racer was known as the Mormon Meteor III.

Detonics Street Master
A strange 1911 variant that uses a full sized slide but installed on the Detonics Combat Master frame. Much like the Score Master, the Street Master was also available with a conversion kit to use .451 Detonics. I’m not sure what the intended goal was for the Street Master. The grip and frame allude to some sense of compact concealed carry but then it’s thrown off balance by the standard length, full sized slide and barrel. Not surprisingly the Street Master is somewhat rare, with low production numbers before the model was discontinued. (GRH)
