Twombly (cyclecar)

The Twombly was an American cyclecar manufactured by Driggs-Seabury between 1913 and 1915.

The cars had water-cooled, four-cylinder engines, two seats in tandem, and an underslung body.

The car was designed by Willard Irving Twombly (1873-1953).

His largest investor, Reverend David Stuart Dodge petitioned for bankruptcy in 1915 claiming he was owed $428,238 by the Twombly group of companies for loans and interest.

[1] Shortly after this, Twombly became involved in an expensive divorce case and was eventually jailed following accusations of bigamy and misconduct.
