1910 Everitt Model 30
The Everitt, first introduced in 1909, was the creation of William Metzger and Byron Everitt, of the Metzger Motor Car Company. Metzger and Everitt, along with Walter Flanders, had created a very similar vehicle the year before, the EMF, that was sold by Studebaker. Everitt and Metzger left EMF and produced the Everitt until 1912 when Flanders joined Metzger and Everitt and they formed the Flanders Motor Company.
This vehicle was purchased new in Gloversville, New York and was driven for ten years before the vehicle was put in storage. This vehicle has its original leather interior and is one of the oldest remaining Everitt's known to exist.
