Wikipedia: The Autocar Company is an American specialist manufacturer of severe-duty, cab over engine vocational trucks. Started in 1897 in Pittsburgh, PA as the Pittsburgh Motor Vehicle Company it was renamed the Autocar Company in 1899. Autocar is the oldest surviving motor vehicle brand in the Western Hemisphere. The last cars were produced in 1911 and the company continued as an innovative maker of severe-duty trucks. In 1953 Autocar was taken over by the White Motor Company which made Autocar their top-of-the-line brand. White was taken over in turn by Volvo Trucks in 1981 with Autocar continuing as a division. In 2001, Autocar was revived as an independent company. Autocar now builds three models of custom-engineered, heavy duty trucks and has regained leading positions in several vocational segments.
This close up detail of the hood ornament of a rusty and paint peeling Autocar truck would make a great gift for the man in your life or anyone interested in vintage American vehicles. It would be good as nostalgic decor for a den, man cave or garage or a rustic accent anywhere.
I hope you will consider acquiring one of my photographs for your personal enjoyment or as a gift.
