Lorain, Ohio

Size: 44mm diameter     MM: Unknown

The 66 hp Carroll Six was offered as a two-passenger roadster or a five-passenger touring and had a radiator recessed behind the front axle, giving the car a distinctive appearance. Both body styles were delivered fully equipped with a long list of valuable accessories at no additional cost. But after a year and the production of only 183 units the Carroll Six was finished.

The only surviving Carroll Six car is on display at the Swigart Auto Museum near Huntington, Pennsylvania.

Emblems

The metal Carroll Six radiator emblem shown above is extremely rare.
