The St. Louis automobile was short-lived (1899 to 1907) but maintains a special place in the history of one of the automotive industry's major suppliers - the Timken Company.
The Timken Company was founded in St. Louis.
This St. Louis Motor Carriage car Company runabout was restored by the Timken Company because it was the first automobile company to use Timken bearings (1899). The rear axle of the car was built by the Timken Roller Bearing Axle Company.
Prior to its restoration by a dedicated team of Timken employees, the car was stored in an Arkansas barn. It is powered by a nine-horsepower, single-cylinder motor and features a two-speed transmission.
Since its restoration, the St. Louis has appeared at many Timken plant locations around the world during the company's centennial celebration and participated in the 1999 London to Brighton Run in England.
