1912 SGV
S.G.V. Automobile Manufacturing Company was Herbert Sternbergh, Robert Graham and Fred Van Tine. These were expensive cars, $2,500 to $4,000 owned by many rich and famous customers in Philadelphia, New York and in Europe.
The Boyertown Museum asked us to get the car running after a long sleep. With some fuel and ignition system repairs we have been able to drive the car successfully. We also completed some light cosmetic touch-ups to brighten it's appearance.
This 1912 SGV belongs to the Boyertown Museum of Historic Vehicles.
A Custom Runabout body style. Note the single rear seat; for the mother-in-law!
A four cylinder engine of 263 cubic inch displacement produced 35 horsepower.
Note the large brass Westinghouse air-oil shock absorbers.
