Established in 1910, The Four Wheel Drive Auto Company was created to produce automobiles. “The Battleship,” America’s “first successful four-wheel-drive automobile” was offered for sale in the company’s 1911 sales catalog. However, the start of World War I in 1914 and the unsuccessful expedition to Mexico to capture Pancho Villa in 1916 led to a change and the production of over 24,000 FWD Model B trucks.

Over the years, FWD produced a variety of specialized vehicles for road construction and maintenance, snow removal, utility construction and maintenance, oil exploration and production, cement mixers, logging, and even school buses. All of these are featured here in sharp black and white photos with in-depth captions.

Softbound, 10.25”x8.5”, 128 pages, 123 photos
