Description:
Harvey Allen Moyer had been producing carriages since 1875 and began building automobiles in Syracuse (N.Y./USA) in 1909. His cars were of high quality and technically quite advanced – for example, the rear axle already had a kind of stabiliser and the engine could be considered sensational for the time. All of the open-top vehicles were fitted with elaborately crafted bodies made of American oak. Quality had its price and so Moyer was unable to permanently assert itself against the mass products of Ford and other large-scale manufacturers. Production was discontinued in 1915.
This very rare car travelled from the USA via Belgium to Germany, where it was restored to its original condition at extraordinary expense. It is in outstanding condition.
A brochure and operating manual are available for the car.
Factory bodywork double Phaeton with folding top Moyer “T-Head Long Stroke”, water-cooled in-line four-cylinder in a paired arrangement, 5.2 litre capacity, approx. 40 hp, dual ignition battery/magnet, 3-speed gearbox. Folding windscreen, soft top and side windows, wooden spoke wheels, lighting.
