The story behind this collectible...

- Stutz, snappy cars that are met with instant approval. -

Harry C. Stutz is a hero in automotive history, who in our opinion belongs among all the other big names. In 1911 he started producing cars. Not cars for the novice driver, but for people with petrol in their veins. The Stutz Bearcat won the Indi 500 against all the already established names and was dismissed as 'the car that just had a good day'. Luck? Maybe a little. It was more due to revolutionary technology that the big names later all adopted. For example, Harry came up with one of the first 'multivalve engines' (4 per cylinder), the transaxle and the underlying chassis. The latter in particular ensured much better roadholding due to a lower centre of gravity. Very nice for the time of no seat belts, non-adjustable steering columns and bicycle tires.

After the Bearcat, several models with a lot of racing DNA followed. Our Stutz Black Hawk was also born in 1928. A car with a lot of power for that time. The 4.8 liter 8-in-line spewed out 140 HP with a lot of noise, afterburning, goose bumps and din. And that is quite exciting for a pre-war with brakes of an average modern cargo bike!

Our Black Hawk Speedster was restored in England a while ago, after which she was in a Danish and Swedish collection. She has been with us in the Netherlands since 1999 and is now, after 21 years, looking for her next loving home.
