High wheeler

High wheeler

The High Wheeler was an early car body style virtually unique to the United States.

It is typified by large diameter slender wheels, frequently with solid tyres, to give plenty of ground clearance for use on the primitive tracks in much of the country at the turn of the 20th century. The last ones were built around 1910.
