The Simplex Automobile Co. was an American luxury Brass Era automobile manufactured from 1907 to 1918. Crane-Simplex was the common name of the Simplex Crane Model 5 luxury automobile, produced in New Brunswick, New Jersey, from 1915 to 1918. Headquartered with a manufacturing plant in New York City, manufacturing from 1912 was in New Brunswick, New Jersey. The Crane-Simplex Company was formed in 1922 in Long Island City, New York, by Henry M. Crane to resume production of the luxury car in an attempt to revive the brand, but closed after only a few chassis were built.
Stewart-Warner was founded in 1905, beginning as Stewart & Clark Co., until it merged with the Warner Instrument Company of Beloit, Wisconsin, in 1912. They became a major supplier of speedometers in the automotive industry, and by the 1920s, Warner's magnetic speedometers became standard equipment in over 90% of automobiles manufactured in the United States. Stewart-Warner speedometers could be found on such high-end antique vehicles as Duesenbergs, Roamers, and Stutz - examples of which can be seen in the Dick Shappy Collection. They have since expanded their product line, acquired other businesses, and have become a part of CentroMotion, a global manufacturing company, where they still produce speedometers.
