  • . Did the Hicks car company stay in business for long? Glad you liked the "parlor car seating" in the 321! You're right, all three cars are from different builders - 308 is Niles, 309 Hicks and 321 Jewett.
  • . We're always in need of more people, particularly to work on the current project (now 308, soon to be 309) - tell your father we'd love to have him join the team! Niles Car & Manufacturing was an independent company and was never acquired by Brill as some other builders like American and Kuhlman were; Niles went out of business around 1917 at about the same time as Jewett.
