History


The Nelson was designed by engineer Emil A. Nelson, who formerly worked for Oldsmobile, Packard, and Hupmobile. The Nelson, designed along European lines, was equipped with a 2.4 liter four-cylinder aero-type engine with overhead cams. The vehicle was built as a touring car, roadster and a handful of closed model sedans. Price for the touring car in 1919 was $1,500, equivalent to $23,444 in 2021.[1]

Beginning production just before the U. S. joined in World War I and the post-war depression, caused E. A. Nelson's self-funded company to have financial issues. Approximately 1,028 vehicles were built before bankruptcy in 1921.[1]
