Scripps-Booth
US, 1913 – 1922
The Scripps-Booth Co, Detroit, Mich.
James Scripps-Booth planned to make a tandem two-seater cyclecar steered from the rear, but the production model Scripps-Booth car had front-seat steering. The Scripps-Booth car was powered by a Spacke air-cooled V-twin engine, had 2-speed planetary transmission, and final drive by two leather V-belts. About 400 Scripps-Booth cars were sold at $385 each, up to the end of 1914. These Scripps-Booth cyclecars were sometimes known as Rockets. From 1914 to 1916 a staggered-seat roadster, the Model C Scripps-Booth car, was made, powered by a 25hp Sterling 4-cylinder ohv engine, and this Scripps-Booth car was using shaft drive. This was replaced in 1916 by the Model D Scripps-Booth car, with a Ferro V8 engine, made in roadster, touring and town car models. Both Models C and D Scripps-Booth cars had pointed radiators, some of the Model D town cars being very similar to the Mercedes in this respect.
In July 1918 Scripps-Booth cars was acquired by General Motors, and the Scripps-Booth cars rapidly lost their individuality. The 1918 Model G Scripps-Booth car had a Mason-built Chevrolet 490 engine, transmission and rear axle, and so was really a Chevrolet in Scripps-Booth car clothing, but at a much higher price than the Chevrolet. 1919 to 1923 Scripps-Booth car models had Oakland chassis and Northway engines, with Scripps-Booth bodies and radiators. In 1921 even the V-radiator was abandoned.
