History
The company made cars that were called Owen Thomas "Sixes.".[2] They had air-cooled, 60 hp six-cylinder engines. One advanced feature was that instead of a carb., the Owen Thomas had an early type of fuel injection system based on early aviation practices.[1] The wheelbase was a long 136". The company went out of business in Sept. of 1910, the official reason was because the backers could not get a Selden license.[1]
