Stutz

The Stutz Motor Company was an American automotive manufacturer established in 1911. Stutz was founded by famed race car engineer and builder, Harry C. Stutz, and his partner Henry F Campbell. This new company specialized in creating luxurious high performance cars that were amongst the fastest in the world during their production. These cars included the famed Bearcat and Vertical Eight. Stutz would encounter financial problems, eventually shutting down production in 1935 and declaring bankruptcy in 1937. After a long period of dormancy, the Stutz brand was revived in 1968 by famed automotive designer Virgil Exner, this time known as Stutz Motor Car of America. This new iteration of Stutz built limited production luxury cars such as the IV-Porte, and the Blackhawk.
