The Early Years of Buick. Buick is currently the oldest active North American automotive make. and among the oldest automobile brands in the world. It originated as the Buick Auto-Vim and Power Company in 1899. an independent internal combustion engine and motor-car manufacturer. and was later incorporated as the Buick Motor Company on May 19. 1903. by Scottish born David Dunbar Buick in Detroit. Michigan. Later that year. the company was taken over by James H. Whiting (1842–1919). who moved it to his hometown of Flint. Michigan. and brought in William C. Durant in 1904 to manage his new acquisition. He teamed up with R S McLaughlin in Canada in 1907 with a 15 year contract for motors 1908 GM Holding was founded. The first Buick made for sale. the 1904 Model B. was built in Flint. Michigan. There were 37 Buicks made that year. none of which survived. There are. however. two replicas in existence: the 1904 endurance car. at the Buick Gallery & Research Center in Flint. and a Model B assembled by an enthusiast in California for the division's 100th anniversary. Both of these vehicles use various parts from Buicks of that early era. as well as fabricated parts. These vehicles were each constructed with the two known surviving 1904 engines. Buicks were first built to replicate the living room in a moving automobile. and were nicknamed the "moving couch of America". The power train and chassis architecture introduced on the Model B was continued through the 1909 Model F. The early success of Buick is attributed in part to the valve-in-head. or overhead valve (OHV). engine patented by Eugene Richard and developed by David Dunbar Buick. The Model F had a two-cylinder engine. an 87 inch wheelbase and weighed 1. 00 lbs. The creation of General Motors is attributed in part to the success of Buick. so it can be said Marr and Richard's designs directly led to GM. At first. Buick followed the likes of Napier in automobile racing. winning the first-ever race held at Indianapolis Motor Speedway In 1911. Buick introduced its first closed-body car. four years ahead of Ford The early success of Buick is attributed in part to the valve-in-head. or overhead valve (OHV). engine 1923 Buick Parts Included with sale:  all item are extra and not part of the sale car.
