Jeff Lipnichan picked up the 1915 Standard Eight made by the Standard Steel Car Company in Butler, PA.  These cars used Herschell Spillman V8 motors.  There only seem to be 5 of these remaining. Click this link to CenturyFarm.org for more pictures of the car.

If you have any information on any of the other Standard Eight cars or other cars with the same HS V8 he would appreciate to hear from you.

My brother and I grew up in Butler is why we like the Standard Eight cars. There is a local AACA chapter that has two additional Standard Eight cars and one of the members has restored several early Bantam Jeeps that were also made in Butler, PA like the Austin Bantams your write about.

We have to have the cooling pipes done on the engine before we take it for a spin. The car was restored back in the early 60s. They have been looking for years for more Standard Eights that were built in the late teen and early 20s all using the Herschell Spillman V8 engines.

The Standard Steel plant in Butler, PA, was later used to build the American Austin and Bantam cars:
