Western Tool Works (automobile company)

Western Tool Works was an American brass era automobile manufacturer in Galesburg, Illinois.

[1] Early Gale runabouts were notable for having bodywork hinged at the rear of the car that could be lifted to ease access to the engine,[1][2][3] essentially making the entire body the hood.

Its water-cooled engine, springs, wheels, and tires had the same dimensions as those of the Model A, and it also had chain drive and a repair kit.

[9] It offered available leather buggy top, clincher tires, horn, and brass headlights.

[9] In 1907, Western offered the 26 hp (19 kW) Gale Model K-7 phaeton at $1,250.
