In 1943, Preston T. Tucker (1903-1956) of Ypsilanti, Michigan,
developed an innovative new passenger car for postwar America. The
Tucker, of which only 51 were built, boasted disc brakes, pop-out
windshields, padded dashboards and front-passenger crash compartments.
It pioneered several automotive features that would later become
standard. Tuckers were capable of a top speed of 122 mph and
originally cost about $2,450. The last Tucker was manufactured in
1948, shortly before Preston Tucker faced charges of fraud by the
Securities and Exchange Commission. Tucker successfully fought off the
SEC charges and was at work on an automobile to be built in Brazil,
the Carioca, when he died in 1956.
