The Stutz Company, founded by Harry C. Stutz, got its start in 1911 when they built cars to compete at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway's 500-mile race. The Stutz cars did not win the race, but they performed well and garnered publicity for the new car builder. After the race, the Ideal Motor Company was founded, and production of one of the country's high-performance vehicles began. By 1913, the company had been renamed the Stutz Motor Car Company and produced four and six-cylinder models, including the Bearcat.Harry C. Stutz left the company in 1919 after disagreements with the company's stockholders. He formed his own company, the H.C.S. The Stutz Company was taken over by the Bethlehem Steel Magnate Charles M. Schwab, and Frederick Moscovics was hired to transform the Stutz sports car into a proper luxury car.This 1924 Stutz Special Six Tourabout is from the Miller Estate. Alexander Kennedy Miller amassed a vast collection of original Stutz parts, vehicles, and memorabilia on his property in East Orange, Vermont.
This Tourabout is a sporty phaeton equipped by the factory with a rear-mounted trunk, dual side mounts hung from the body, and disc wheels. It has its original upholstery, splash aprons, and an overhead valve Weideley six-cylinder engine displacing 268 cubic inches and offering 75 horsepower. There is a three-speed manual transmission and rear-wheel internal-expanding mechanical drum brakes.
