Product Details & Size Guide
Bring a small chapter of American motoring history into everyday wear with this Buckmobile Company T-Shirt. Formed in Utica, New York, in 1902, the company grew from an earlier automobile venture and built runabouts through 1905. Its designs changed as equipment and advertised power evolved, while a factory expansion and a 1904 merger could not keep production going. With only about 40 cars estimated to have been made, Buckmobile remains a compelling name for enthusiasts of early automobiles and overlooked makers. A thoughtful choice for car shows, casual outings, or a collection celebrating pioneering transport.
Buckmobile Company was formed on May 31, 1902, out of the earlier Utica Automobile Co., headed by A.J. Seaton and W. H. Birdsall. A prototype had been created in 1901, and the company manufactured Buckmobile automobiles in Utica, New York, from 1902 to 1905. Its early runabouts evolved in styling and equipment: by 1903 they had a twin-cylinder, 10-horsepower engine, while later versions added a steering wheel and advertised 15 horsepower. The company expanded its factory, but the expansion dealt it a serious financial blow. In 1904, Buckmobile was acquired through a merger with the Black Diamond Automobile Company. Buckmobile production and the brand continued largely unchanged, while a proposed Black Diamond car apparently did not reach production. The merged business also briefly made a commercial Business Wagon. Production ended by July 1905, and the business was sold at a sheriff's sale shortly afterward. Total production is estimated at about 40 Buckmobiles.
