Wheelbase: 96" - From an important private collection - Rare surviving Type E Locomobile - Ex-David Uihlein Collection Locomobile’s rise to success was impressive, becoming the most popular car in the United States and adopting the slogan, “Easily the Best Built Car in America.” The Type E Locomobile was new for 1905.
Built on a 96-inch wheelbase, it had a 15/20-hp T-head four-cylinder engine of 198.8-cubic inch displacement.
Priced at $2,800 for a tourer or $3,300 as a landaulet, it continued in production through 1908.
