Alpena Flyer

[1] The car was intended to be light and inexpensive, and to make Alpena into an "Automobile City".

It had almost 40 horsepower, disc clutch, water cooling, a Splitdorf magneto, Schebler carburetor, sliding gear transmission with three speeds and reverse, a 112 in (280 cm) wheelbase, 34 in (86 cm) wheels and 24 inch x 3+1⁄2-inch tires, and torque tube drive.

The 1912 Alpena Flyer had 7 models, which included a 40-horsepower engine, 120" wheelbase, 36x4 tires, electric lights, self-start, 3 oil lamps, 2 gas headlamps, and removable rims.

Alpena Motor Car ran into legal and financial problems shortly after the Flyer was first built.

The patent holder, Emile Huber, brought suit against the company, and the car manufacturer was fined $400,000 for the offense.
