(2) Northern Motor Car Co, Detroit, Mich., 1906 – 1909
The Northern car company was founded by two ex-Oldsmobile engineers, J.D. Maxwell and C.B. King. Their first and most popular Northern car was the Silent Northern, a single-cylinder two-seater runabout not unlike the Oldsmobile, but with a straight dash. These Northern cars were made under licence in Sweden as the Norden. Bonnetted, flat-twins were sold from 1904 and in 1906 King designed a 4-cylinder 18hp Northern car with air-operated brakes and clutch. In 1908 he left the Northern car company – later to make the King car – and in 1909 Northern cars merged with E.M.F.
