Jennis

US, 1903 -1905

The Jennis car story begins in 1903 when businessman Peter Jenness of Chestnut Hill, Pennsylvania, backed by a wealthy financier, designs and builts two Jennis car chassis for himself and intentions of building more Jennis cars for his friends. After the second Jennis car chassis was completed, unfortunately the Jenness’s factory for the Jennis car had a fire and burnt to the ground only being able to save one Jennis chassis. Taking a big blow financially, Jenness was able to get back on track and had the coachwork fitted to the Jennis car chassis with a beautiful 5 passenger touring body by Quinby in 1905. Unfortunately, Jenness’s financial backer suffered from an unexpected heart attack and died so the “Jennis car” dream died with him as Mr Jenness could no longer financially support building more cars.

The Jennis car has a 5 X 5 inch bore and stroke, 50 horsepower 4 cylinder, double chain drive, three-speed progressive sliding gear transmission, cast bronze crankcase and transmission, and automatic intake valves.
