Swear57 Posted June 1, 2022 Share Posted June 1, 2022 Anybody know anything about the 1910 Wyatt on craigslist. It is a put together car, according to the post. I can't find anything on the car. How long it was in production, where it was built, how many were built. Go to CA, Inland Empire on craigslist to see a picture. Thanks Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John_S_in_Penna Posted June 1, 2022 Share Posted June 1, 2022 (edited) I think this is not a genuine historical vehicle, but a "creation" with a name all its own. The "1910" date is doubtful. The Craig's List ad above states, "THIS CAR WAS PREVIOUSLY OWNED BY A CABNIT [sic] MAKER WHO BUILT THE BODY. THE REST OF CAR IS MADE UP OF 1910 AUTO PARTS, WHEELS, SUSPENSION ECT. [sic] POWERED BY 10 HORSE BRIGGS AND STRATON MOTOR. IT HAS FOWARD AND REVERSE AND TRAVELS ABOUT 25MPH. KEY START, AHUGA HORN. MOTOR IS NEW AND RUNS GREAT. TITLE IS CLEAN AND PINK SLIP IN HAND." Asking price is only $3500! The Standard Catalog of American Cars 1805-1942 is your friend when researching any pre-war vehicle, even the most obscure. However, it lists briefly only a "Wyatt & Listman" company from New York City, organized in 1908 with a small amount of capital. "Manufacture is doubted," it says.

JV Puleo Posted June 1, 2022 Share Posted June 1, 2022 The seller freely admits it was made up from various parts. The 1910 date means little or nothing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Restorer32 Posted June 1, 2022 Share Posted June 1, 2022 Park it next to the Tucker Convertible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted June 1, 2022 Share Posted June 1, 2022 It's cute! And it's only $3,500! Put a little trailer behind it and cruise the swap meets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JFranklin Posted June 1, 2022 Share Posted June 1, 2022 It looks well worth the money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dandy Dave Posted June 2, 2022 Share Posted June 2, 2022 (edited) Picking parts out of the photo. Briggs engine. Not 1910. Steering column and steering wheel is Model T Ford. Also on the wrong side for an early car other than Ford. Everything else was right hand drive. Rear end looks like a Ruckstell which is aftermarket for Model T Ford. Most likely one that is geared down to compensate for the lack of power. Rear spring is also Model T Ford. Wheels and Tires. I bet they're also 30 X 3 or 30 X 3'5. yup. Model T Ford. I think we have a theme going here.... Dandy Dave. Edited June 2, 2022 by Dandy Dave (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Restorer32 Posted June 2, 2022 Share Posted June 2, 2022 Compliments to the seller for accurately describing this vehicle and not trying to pass it off as something it clearly is not. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tyler searle Posted June 3, 2022 Share Posted June 3, 2022 Not misrepresented at all. Cute car, reasonable price. I think it’s very well done. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pkhammer Posted June 3, 2022 Share Posted June 3, 2022 Better than a golf cart. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 3, 2022 Share Posted June 3, 2022 Interesting to note that the owner was able to title it as a 1910 Wyatt. Blurry picture yes, but that is the position on a California title for year and make and it says 1910 Wyatt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swear57 Posted June 4, 2022 Author Share Posted June 4, 2022 So my question is was there a Wyatt car built, what years, how many years, how many models. Yes I know it's a put together car & not original. Thanks Your right it's as cheap as a golf cart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the question about whether a Wyatt car was built and how many has been answered. My guess is that Wyatt may have been the name of the individual that created this one-off car. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gossp Posted June 4, 2022 Share Posted June 4, 2022 My guess is that seat started life out as a rear seat of something quite early. It is neat and it is priced in the range of an ok used golf cart. If you had a 300 foot long front yard this guy would seriously add smiles to the daily trip to the mailbox. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the life of me I fall to see what the original post has to do with either Lincoln or Zephyr. Did a moderator hit the wrong button? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
