1910 Buick Model F

Vehicle Description 1910 Buick Model F $35,900 Continuing today as one of America’s premier automotive marques, Buick was founded by David Dunbar Buick in 1903. Chief among Buick’s many contributions to automotive technology was the famed ‘valve-in-head’ engine design, engineered by Walter L. Marr. In 1904, the first Buick known as the Model B entered production in Flint, Michigan at a re-purposed factory that had once housed Flint Wagon Works. The basic design of the 1904 Buick was very well-built, even by today’s standards. Eventually, William C. “Billy” Durant, who would soon become the founder of General Motors, acquired the Buick Motor Company. In 1907, construction of Buick’s #1 Plant was completed in Flint, and over the next four years, Durant turned Buick into the most successful automobile brand in the United States.Buick’s Model F entered production for 1906 as a revised version of the prior Model C. Power was delivered by a two-cylinder engine, displacing 159 CI with a 22 HP factory rating, which continued in use through 1910. Model F was a singular offering for 1906-10 with a versatile 5-passenger Touring body style. This delightful example was formerly under the ownership, care and enjoyment of a Horseless Carriage Club member and their family. The Buick’s file includes a wonderful account of its earlier history as well. Handsomely presented, this historic early Buick is a fitting touchstone to the early American auto industry and the foundational years of General Motors. Canadian tax is not applicable.
