This 1916 Premiere Model 6-56 wears an aluminum body with no external door hinges or handles. There were six body styles to select from, with prices in the mid-$2,000 range. The wheelbase measured 134-inches and powered by a 56-horsepower engine. The engine had a one-piece aluminum casting with aluminum crankcase and pistons. The one-piece block was new to the market and there was only one other manufacturer using the design - Haynes. The use of lightweight aluminum made the car rather quick for its day. Another feature was the Cutler-Hammer, electric push button gear shift mechanism.
