Recorded originUnited States
ClassCovered delivery van
Commercially oriented Worth vehicle described as a covered rapid-delivery van whose interchangeable body concept could also carry passengers. Period corporate accounts associate William O. Worth, W. R. Donaldson, Henry R. Kellogg and J. E. Keith with the program. The body alternatives remain one chassis family rather than fabricated separate models. A later 1903–04 Worth-traction-drive rail motor assembled by the company is preserved in brand history but excluded from this road-vehicle catalog.
