The Stanley twins, Francis E. and Freelan O., from Kingfield, Maine, were extraordinary Yankee inventors whose abilities were nearly complementary. Their first fortune was made by improving a photographic dry plate process. With money and time they turned to steam cars as early as 1897. Never as elegant as the White steam cars, they were good enough so the twins were able to sell the factory in 1899 for $250,000. From 1901 until 1925, the Stanley Motor Carriage Co. made 10,390 cars in 66 models.
This 10 hp Model E-2 rides on a 100-inch wheelbase and has a 70.5-cubic inch, 2-cylinder engine. It was built in Newton, MA, and sold new for $850. It burns kerosene to make steam, but starts on white gas. This car is unrestored and mostly original.
