History
The Caloric Motorcycle company was founded in 1898 by Charles Dickinson, L.F. Douglass, and Henry B. Babson at 107 Madison Street in Chicago, Ills.
Their program statement of building gas, electric, and steam cars was never fulfilled. It wasn't until 1903 that their first car was produced.[1]
To start the engine, a blow torch had to be used to heat the cylinder head until it was red hot. In 1904, the company merged with Auto Motor Cycle Company and announced no more car production.
