Curtiss
US, 1920 – 1921
Curtiss Motor Car Co, Hammondsport, N.Y.
The Curtiss was a custom-built car designed and built by Miles Harold Carpenter on Phianna chassis and utilizing the Curtiss OX-5 aircraft engine. These were built to special order for Glenn Hammond Curtiss (born in Hammondsport) and his friends. They were long-wheelbase high-performance cars. Charlie Kirkham, the original designer and chief engineer of the Curtiss Aeroplane Co, was brought in to modify these engines for automobile use; he was already producing Kirkham proprietary engines for other assembled-car manufacturers and had also made the engines for the famous Curtiss motorcycles (and for Marvel motorcycles, also built in 1912 at Hammondsport). The Curtiss company did not survive the 1921 slump.
