1906 Success Modell A High Wheeler Runabout für zwei Personen

Ein High wheeler ist ein in der Regel kutschenähnliches, motorbetriebenes Fahrzeug dass vor und um die Jahrhundertwende des 19. Jahrhunderts in den USA verbreitet war. Namengebend sind die riesigen, mit Eisen beschlagenen Holzspeichenräder. Die meisten High wheeler hatten einen Aufbau der für Fracht oder Passagagiere eingerichtet werden konnte; einige besassen eine konventionelle Karosserie mit einer Motorhaube.

Die meisten High wheeler hatten einen Benzinmotor als Antrieb, es bereitete jedoch kaum technische Probleme, stattdessen einen einen Elektromotor oder eine Dampfmaschine zu verwenden. Die robuste Konstruktionsweise und die gute Raumausnutzung kamen letzteren sogar entgegen.

"The Crown Motor Vehicle Company has been incorporated in Massachusetts with a factory in Amesbury to manufacture High Wheel Cars for business and pleasure to sell from $600 to $1000. The officers are W.A. Shafer, President; Frank Dodge, Treasurer; W.A Grayson, Secretary. They were to be shown at the following Boston Automobile Show. " It was the company's belief that a high-wheel vehicle was needed in rural areas. Very few were made before shutting down in 1909.

  • Culver
  • Curtis (USA, Newburyport MA)
Francis Curtis was the superintendent of the Gas Works in Newburyport and in 1866, he invented a steam engine which was attached to a piece of fire fighting equipment. The Newburyport Daily Herald described it as self reliant and independent as though it were a living thing. Nehemiah Bean, designer of the Amoskeag fire engine sat next to Curtis on its initial run and it may be that his engine was used in the Famous Amoskeag Fire Wagon. He built a steam passenger carrriage the following year built to the specifications of an unnamed client. The boiler was made by the Whittier Machine Works and was placed in front of the seat with a coal box at the rear. The water tank was 20 gallons and and coal capacity was 80 pounds. The steam pressure reached 40 to 45 pounds. It had a five horse power engine that could reach 25 mph. With a full load of coal, the car could go 30 miles, providing a half dozen stops for water. The longest run between water stops was 9 miles in 26 minutes. The price agreed to was $1000 to be paid in installments. When the owner failed to pay, Francis Curtis took back his steamer. This had to be the first repossion in American history. There was another first. During the testing period before delivering to his client, the Curtis aroused the wrath of his neighbors, one of whom swore out a warrant for his arrest. When the officer arrived, Curtis left in his car with the officer in hot pursuit on foot, The first getaway by car in American history. Curtis had difficulty convincing the Newburyport City Council the wisdom of steam power and he was never able to build another steam power automobile in town.
