[2] In 1919 Martin leased workshops at a Pleasant street plant in Bennington, Vermont[3] and incorporated the Martin-Wasp Corporation to build coach-built automobiles.

[5] It was described as having sharply pointed stylized fenders, fully-nickeled German radiator and headlights, large step plates, natural wood bows on top with many curves, bullet lights in the windshield, and black lacquer paint contrasting with its natural aluminum hood.

Rudge-Whitworth wire wheels, stylized aluminum stingers on the hood, red leather interior with in-laid wood dash with a built-in St. Christopher's medal, completed the description.

[1][2] The first Wasp was done just in time for National Automobile Week in New York City and was exhibited at the Commodore Hotel in January, 1920.

In 1922 Martin announced his next series which would be a six-cylinder Continental engine custom car, with a 144-inch wheelbase priced at $10,000, (equivalent to $182,028 in 2023).
