American Napier (automobile)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The American Napier was an automobile sold by the Napier Motor Car Company of America which initially imported assembled Napiers from England. From late 1904 the cars were assembled under licence in Boston, Massachusetts. The cars were offered with both American and British built coachwork.
In 1907 the company experienced financial problems and production was halted.
In 1909 a new company took over and production restarted in March that year. This lasted until 1911 when the British Napier Motor Company took over the interests, but this venture barely lasted a year. American Napier, 1904-12.
