Chase Highwheeler Delivery Van

It is remarkable that there are still such old delivery or freight trucks that are in such exceptionally good, authentic condition.

It is remarkable that there are still such old delivery or freight trucks that are in such exceptionally good, authentic condition. After all, they are workhorses that lead a relatively hard life. This Chase Highweeler Delivery Van was discovered in an abandoned barn in Indiana (USA), wedged between old tractors and other agricultural vehicles. Chase is based in Syracuse in the state of New York and specializes in commercial vehicles, particularly those built on the then-popular American "highwheeler" concept. This type of car, with its tall wheels, was specifically developed to drive on the dirt roads of the American West. This 1908 Chase Highweeler Delivery Van, with its air-cooled 2.6-liter two-cylinder engine, is a typical example. The Chase brand existed only from 1907 to 1912.
