Stutz Information : "The STUTZ Bearcat was the preeminent sports car of the Jazz Age," John B. Rae The American Automobile "The STUTZ Bearcat, like Paul Bunyan or the 20th Century Limited (train), is a seminal part of American folklore," Ralph Stein The Great Cars • STUTZ Motor Car of America has long been renowned for its innovation and longstanding contributions to automotive engineering. From its inception STUTZ held a reputation for building fast, durable, and safe cars with the utmost in style. • By the mid 1920's the Stutz name had become synonymous with automotive excellence. Not only were the early STUTZ cars fast and reliable, they were the hallmarks for state-of-the-art design, engineering, and innovation. In addition, STUTZ produced the quietest running and most powerful V-8 engine on the market. • The STUTZ Bearcat is recognized as America's first race car. It participated in the inaugural Indianapolis 500 in 1911, and was the "flawless vehicle" that Cannonball Baker drove coast-to-coast (1915) in the renowned and record setting "Cannonball Run". • In 1927 the STUTZ Blackhawk Speedster set the land speed record (107 mph) over the sands of Daytona Beach, Fla.., and later became the epitome of the American luxury car. • Stutz designed and built the first "under-slung chassis", which lowered the automobile's center of gravity allowing it to turn more safely and efficiently at greater speeds… a seminal innovation that would serve to initiate a paradigm shift in the manufacturing of the automobile lasting to this day. • STUTZ was first to implement the use of safety glass and the dual overhead cam engine. • The second generation STUTZ Blackhawk, Bearcat II, Victoria, and IV Porte were known for their luxurious coachworks. The second era Stutz was proclaimed "The World's Most Expensive Car". Stutz was appropriately crowned "The Car of King's", and is still one of only a handful of cars to ever grace a United States postage stamp. |
