Vulcans were built in Painesville, Ohio from 1913 to 1916. Erie automobiles were built in the same plant using the same parts in 1917. After a very long search Tony brought what is believed to be the last remaining Vulcan home to Painesville. There is no electrical system so Tony crank starts it. Now that he has it tuned up and the weather is warm he doesn't need to use the primer cups. He does have to get it home before dark because the kerosene burners for the headlights are missing.
