It was a Pierce Arrow, one of the luxury cars of the period. The engine was replaced with an Electric Motor. It was a round, completely enclosed electric motor of approximately 1m in length and 65cm in diameter, with a cooling fan in front. Reputedly, it has no distributor. Tesla was not willing to say who had manufactured the engine. It was possibly one of the divisions of Westinghouse.
Tesla built the energy receiver which he put in front of the dashboard. The car was tested for a week, reaching a top speed of 90 miles per hour effortlessly. The car was kept on a farm, perhaps 20 miles outside of Buffalo, not far from Niagara falls.
This is the last thing heard about the car.
