Combining rarity, provenance, and award-winning restoration, this remarkable early Stutz is believed to be the only surviving example of a six-passenger 1914 Model 4E Touring.

Retaining its original chassis and a 390 cid T-head Wisconsin inline four-cylinder engine, this Model 4E delivers an impressive 60 hp at 1,500 rpm, channeled through a three-speed transaxle – a sophisticated setup drawn from the brand’s racing lineage. As one of the most advanced American cars of its time, the 4E Touring offered performance, innovation, and refined design, carrying forward the competitive DNA that made Stutz a household name following its celebrated 1911 Indianapolis 500 debut, inspiring the slogan “The Car That Made Good in a Day.”

This particular Stutz boasts exceptional authenticity, having been acquired in highly original condition from Christie’s famed A.K. Miller Collection auction in 1996. The completeness of the unrestored car, down to its original custom seat covers, enabled a faithful restoration to be carried out in 1998 by Robinson Restorations of Limerick, Pennsylvania for then-owner Andrew L. “Drew” Lewis Jr. Every detail – from embossed Stutz door panels to reproduction diamondpatterned side curtains – was executed to exacting standards. The result was a concours-quality example that has garnered both Senior and Grand National honors from the AACA. Driven sparingly since its restoration, it remains in exceptional condition today.
