Readers who are so inclined may ask about the supply of top-line Coronets (and others in the line for 1953). Sticking with the Coronet V-8 as an example, Mr. Stoeckel indicated prices and weights for five body styles in that range. The four-door sedan was made in the greatest number with 84,158 heading to buy- ers. Next in number came the Club Coupe with 36,766. Third was the Diplomat at 17,334, followed by the Sierra Station Wagon at 5,400 and, lastly the Convertible at 4,100. When you think about it, if scarcity is what a collector wants, he or she may just as well find a Sierra rather than pay big bucks for a Convertible. 3 Coming Back Home: the Travels of a Gardner Part 1 by Gerald Perschbacher The 1920 Gardner returned to its point-of-manufacture in St. Louis in 2006, having spent most of its usable life in other states. During those “wandering years,” the questions surfaced: where had it been, when, and under whose ownership? That was the mystery that begged to be solved. kota, from where it then traded hands and went to New Hamp- shire where it spent a handful of years as a fun car.

  • Hupmobile-History
    Founder: Robert Craig Hupp 1876-1931 After working at the Oldsmobile, Ford and Regal factories, Hupp founded the Hupp Motor Car Company in Detroit in 1908 with J. Walter Drake, a former lawyer, in the position of company President. His first car, the Model 20, which he named 'Hupmobile' was a two-seater runabout powered by a 2.8 litre four cylinder engine with high tension magneto and a two-speed sliding gear transmission. It was shown at the Detroit Auto Show in February 1909 and was sold as a competitor to the Model T Ford. Designed by Hupp and E. A. Nelson, it sold well and between March and December 1909 a total of 1618 cars had been delivered. In May 1910, Robert Hupp formed and became President of the Hupp Corporation, which included the Hupp-Yeats Electric Car Company, the Hupp-Turner Machine Co. and the Hupp-Johnson Forge Co. Charles D. Hastings was appointed vice-president and his brother Louis Hupp was made secretary/treasurer. During 1910 and 1911, a further 11,419 cars were built by the Hupp Motor Car Co. and a larger four seater car was introduced in 1911. But Robert Hupp had disagreements with his partners in the Hupp Motor Car Co. because he paid too much attention to the Hupp Corporation and in September 1911, he sold his shares and left the company to found the RCH Company. There, he produced a car very similar to the Hupmobile 20 that would be in production until 1916. At the Hupp Motor Car Co, Drake and Hupp's former right-hand man, Charles D.

  • Kenosha Engine Plant Investigation and Cleanup
    Kenosha Engine Plant Investigation & Cleanup RR-894 February 2017 The former Chrysler Engine Plant property is located in the heart of Kenosha in southeast Wisconsin. The plant first opened for automobile production in 1902 under Thomas B. Jeffery and was part of Kenosha’s long-standing history in auto manufacturing, later housing Nash Motors and American Motors Company. The Kenosha Engine Plant property is 107 acres in size. Approximately 3,700 residential-related properties – of which 2,400 are single-family homes – and eight schools are located within one-half mile of the plant. Its general boundaries are: 52nd Street to the north; 60th Street to the south; 24th Avenue to the east; and 30th Avenue to the west. Over the years, a series of mergers and buyouts changed the company name several times – Nash Motors, Nash- Kelvinator and American Motors are a few examples. Eventually the Chrysler Corporation bought the site, and in 1998 Chrysler itself was bought by DaimlerAG, which owned the site until 2007, when Cerberus Capital Management bought the company. After manufacturing automobiles and automobile parts for over 100 years, the plant was a casualty of the 2009 recession and was shut down in the fall of 2010, after the A sign describing the history of auto production in Chrysler Corporation declared bankruptcy. Kenosha on the fence outside the Kenosha Engine Plant (photo courtesy DNR). Old Carco, a liquidation bankruptcy trust, owned the property after the Chrysler bankruptcy proceedings were finalized in May 2010. A settlement agreement, filed in the US Bankruptcy Court in October 2011, was reached with the state of Wisconsin, the city of Kenosha, the United States Government, JP Morgan Chase Bank (the first lien holder of the property), and the Old Carco Liquidation Trust.
