Guest Posted August 2, 2019 Share Posted August 2, 2019 One of my employees is doing some family history research and he shared with me that he is a direct descendant of John and Burton Westcott. I thought that was pretty terrific history! I'm not familiar with the Westcott automobile but I understand they were hand built and produced from 1909-1925. Fun stuff.

Terry Bond Posted August 3, 2019 Share Posted August 3, 2019 I'm sure there will be some additional response, but I have a Wescott watch fob in my collection. Terry 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Dobbin Posted August 3, 2019 Share Posted August 3, 2019 There was a woman, Betty Westcott in the old West Coast Florida Region with big maroon Westcott Touring car. She was real active in AACA. Have not seen or heard anything about her or the car since that Region dissolved. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first National Show I attended was hosted by that region in St Petersburg in 1998. Sorry to here that the region dissolved. I remember most of their members were getting up there in age.

likesL29s Posted December 16, 2021 Share Posted December 16, 2021 I have a Wescott watch fob. Since I am a Model A owner, I would be interested in selling it or trading for a Model A accessory. Also, FYI I am still looking for a dark colored 1931 Slant Windshield Cabriolet, 68C. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you provide a photo of the back side? I could be interested depending on condition and price. Sorry but no Model A stuff to trade.

likesL29s Posted December 16, 2021 Share Posted December 16, 2021 (edited) Currently I do not have a photo of the backside. Will have to get one. I looked at the back side and there are no markings, just plain. Photo will show nothing. Edited January 30, 2022 by likesL29s added information.

John Bloom Posted March 26, 2022 Share Posted March 26, 2022 I picked this up today along with a few other interesting items. A full page ad from The Indianapolis Star July 29, 1913. the 1914 offerings of Westcott (Richmond, Indiana) Both their 120 WB Four cylinder and their 128 WB Six cylinder. Assembled cars, handsome and certainly priced in that “Near Luxury” range. A six cyl roadster around 2,500 dollars. so many great cars born in Indiana Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I called former members of the FWCR (Region) and found out that Betty Westcott's connection to Westcoot car was only that one if her ex-husbands was a Westcott, but no relation to the car company.
