Apollo (1906 automobile)
The Apollo was made by the Chicago Recording Scale Company of Waukegan, Illinois, from 1906 to 1907. The only model, the model B,[1] produced was a five-seater with a Roi-des-Belges body. The barely known predecessor in literature, Model A, had nearly the same technical specifications as Model B. [2] Power came from a water-cooled four-cylinder engine by way of a three-speed transmission and shaft drive. The engine power was 35 hp. The four-cylinder engine had a displacement of 5213 cc with a bore of 114.3 mm and a stroke of 127 mm. The wheelbase was 2794 mm, the track width 1422 mm. The vehicle weight of the five-seater was 998 kg. The selling price was 2500 dollars. [3]
