Alexander Winton was a pioneer in cycling and early motoring. Joining the industry in 1897, Winton automobiles were known for their power and reliability, and went on to establish many endurance and speed records.

The known history for this 1916 Winton Model Six-33 Touring dates to the late 1940s, when J. Henry Fisher of Pennsylvania purchased it and subsequently gave it to his daughter, Ann Klein, who would go on to found Universal Tire, a manufacturer of tires for classic cars. Mrs. Klein and her husband William became noted car collectors. During her ownership, Mrs. Klein participated in many events, including the 1976 Transcontinental Tour. Mrs. Klein kept the Winton until her passing in 2007, and Stan Lucas purchased it from her estate, which was sold by Gooding & Company that year. This restored Winton is an attractive example of a marque that made an important contribution to American automotive history.
