1905 Orient Buckboard Navigation
The Waltham Orient Buckboard weighed 400 pounds and could achieve speeds of 30 mph. Steering was by a tiller, and they had no suspension except for the flexing of the slats that made up its chassis. This minimalistic vehicle was priced at just $375, allowing buyers of modest means to put rubber on the road. The production, however, remained limited and was produced through 1907.
Power was from Waltham's own, air-cooled unit that offered four horsepower. Power was sent to the wheels via chain drive, and the Friction drive offered a wide range of speeds. The ash frame acted as the suspension and was held above the road by all-white pneumatic tires.
This particular has been given a full restoration and received an AACA National First Award in 1991 and a subsequent Senior endorsement. It also has an HCCA 100-Year-Old Vehicle plaque and a VMCCA Award of Excellence.By Daniel Vaughan | Jan 2020
