For decades, Checker was the taxicab ofchoice for New York City and many otherAmerican cities. The size of the car withseating capacity consistent with pre 1954 NewYork City requirements, the robustconstruction facilitated by simplified partsmanagement and the bolt-on fenderscontributed to the Checker’s ubiquity on thestreets of Manhattan.The New York City Checker, Different By DesignThe Checker taxicab, particularly the 1958–82 CheckerModel A9 and A11 series remains the most famoustaxicab ever produced in the UnitedStates. Its iconic status can be attributed to theChecker’s styling comparable to the black Londontaxi, its nationally renowned and went largely unchangedthroughout its use in New York City from 1958 thru 1999.We at the ICTA strive to preserve the history ofour favorite taxi. Our archive is filled withthousands of key documents that shed light onthe greatness of the beloved Checker. Fromthese documents new history is beingidentified, history never told. Perhaps thesurprising facts recently discovered in our filesis that: New York Checker Model A11’s areactually different than any other Checker soldin any other city between 1964 and 1982.4

Within the archive, three engineering memos havebeen uncovered that shed light onto key differences ofChecker Model A11 sold in NYC versus cities.subject: Specific Requirements for New YorkCabs, documents four key areas of differentiation: Front seating requirements, seat back upholsterymust be pulled tight to obtain 18 inches of cushiondepth. Auxiliary seating, a 14 inch wide seat is required Roof lamp wiring, an additional roof light isrequired, this change for NYC would allow Checkerto meet new NYC top light rules enacted for 1965. New card case, with two lamps.Green and Yellow NYC Livery typically sported by Checkers from 1958-1967Dated October 30, 1964 engineering memo number 77from Sab Hori (Checker Engineering 1946-1984) to JimStout (Checker Engineering 1922-1965),On October 4, 1972, a major comprehensive attackon the ever-increasing level of noise in New YorkCity’ was initiated as Mayor John V. Lindsay signedinto law the New York City Noise ControlCode. Checker was required to comply asevidenced with Engineering Memo number 358dated July 24, 1974. The memo states “ Toconform with the New York City Noise ControlRegulation, the New York City Country Horn will becancelled”.5

The law in New York prohibited the sale of claxonhorns that created sounds more than 88 DB, thatcould be heard more the fifty feet away from thestanding vehicle. All Checkers sold in NYC post 1974would sport quieter horns.Perhaps the most significant memo documentingNew York Checker specifications is EngineeringMemo 428, subject: Special Modification for NewYork City Taxi Fleet (1981 Model Year) dated April22, 1981.The memo is comprehensive and covers asignificant number of engineering parameters. Thememo describes these changes as required “ toincrease the durability of our vehicles due to thesevere taxicab duty cycle in the New York Cityenvironment”.Frame Assembly, for 1981 Checker would now havereinforced: rear shock mounting brackets, side rails,bracket to body frame center, X-frame member,engine supports, upper control arms, chassis skidbar and steering gear brace.Michael Pincus owns this 1981 New York City Checker 7A70The NYC Checker would also sport larger G78-15tires rated “C” and include additional straps for the6

The Jim Stout Checker LegacyIn the November 21, 1921 Automotive Industries magazine thefollowing item appeared: “Leyland F Goodspeed for the past fiveyears or more Chief of Engineering staff of the Roamer has resignedfrom at Barley Motor Car Company Co to join forces withCommonwealth Motors of Chicago of Joliet, Illinois has been electedvice president in charge of engineering of Commonwealth Motorswhich at the present time in working on a new passenger car.”In Spring of 1922 the Goodspeed car produced by Commonwealthdebuted to the public. The Goodspeed was a truly modern andexciting car for 1922. In May of 1922 Morris Markin had forced areorganization of Commonwealth and created Checker CabManufacturing. The Commonwealth passenger cars werediscontinued and only Mogul Checker taxicab production continuedultimately transforming into the Checker Model H in 1923.After Goodspeed joined Commonwealth he would later bring hiscolleague from Barley, a 20 year old Jim Stout onboard to Checker.Obeyond Morris & David Markin, Jim Stout would be perhaps one ofthe most important figures at Checker over the period between 1923and 1965.7

Three Goodspeed’s were produced for pubic display in the Spring of 1922He effectively had a hand in every Checker produced,from the early days after the move from Joliet toKalamazoo to the mid 1960’s when Checker wasexpanding into the consumer retail market.In July of 1983 CMC published an article about JimStout in the Checker Headlight Newsletter. A shortarticle, it’s packed with great information on a man whohad major impact at Checker. The article reports thatJim Stout started at Checker on August 13, 1923 abouta year and a half after the Goodspeed was introduced.One of Stouts first responsibilities wasassisting Goodspeed in the turn around ofproduction, moving production from Chicagoto Kalamazoo. The effort required the take overof the Knight-Handley and Dort manufacturingfacilities. Additionally Stout would assistGoodspeed in the development of reengineered Model H and launched the ModelH-2. The primary difference was the switchfrom the Herschell-Spellman engines to Buda.In a the Headlight article, Stout recounted thatin the early days of manufacturing “it took 20days to get a car through the paint shop andwe only had one drill press which peoplewaited in line to use!!!.”Prior to World War II Stout held many positionsat Checker Cab Manufacturing. He was theChief Inspector and Quality Control Head.8

Jim Stout held roles in the procurement department,sales and engineering. At one time Stout was incharge of Taxicab production. Mr. Stout also servedin field activities, which included servicerepresentation in New York. Ultimately Stout wouldassume the responsibility of Head of ExperimentalEngineering and report directly to Head ofEngineering Herb Snow.During the WWII years, Stout would perform muchof the engineering work to support the war effort.As a leader in engineering, Stout would overseethe production of a variety of WWII militarytrailers: The T1 Jeep Trailer, CC-1 Water BuffaloTrailer and the M9 Tank Trailer. Stout would alsobe involved in test production of the Bantam Jeep,ultimately taking personal possession of oneof resulting Jeeps, Jim would keep that Jeep forover 50 years and would eventually sell that Jeepto a well known Jeep collector.In the post war years Stout would retain hisleadership position at Checker. Stout was leadproject engineer for the outsource production ofthe Sear Roebuck consumer market trailers, animportant project as this effectively kept cashflowing into Checker while the company did nothave a car to produce . Additionally the Searsproject established Checker as a known third partyvehicle manufacturer.9

Stout also worked with Herb Snow and RaymondDietrich on the design and engineering of the Model DChecker prototype. A ground breaking design, had itbeen made, the Model D would have used advancedtechnique of incorporating both front wheel drive andthe use of a transverse engine for the first time inautomotive production. Snow had pioneered thedevelopment of front wheel drive at Cord severalyears earlier, the introduction of a transverseengine/front wheel drive combination was unique andpredated the 1959 Morris Minor use of theconfiguration by some twelve years.Snow and Stout would develop an engineering testmule based on a 1946 Packard. Original plans calledfor a four cylinder engine, but the team was able toutilize a Continental six. The design also was groundbreaking in it’s the extensive use of aluminum.The exterior design work for the Model D wasperformed by noted stylist Raymond Dietrich. JimStout was highly critical of Dietrich’s work.Dietrich rendering of the proposed Model D, not littlebitty headIn an interview with retired Checker collector thelate G. Richard Thomas, Stout recounted “hewould draw little bitty people so his low roof lineswould clear their heads”. According to Stout“passenger ergonomics were important toChecker”. This author can attest to the headroom challenges of the Dietrich designed 1948Checker Model A2.10

In the early 1950’s Stout was actively involved in themaintenance and engineering of the big transit busesmanufactured by Checker. Checker produced busesfor about four years.As his career wound down at Checker Stout would getinvolved in various special projects. In early 1960’sStout would be in charge of the restoration of the1922 Checker Model H now housed at The GilmoreMuseum in Hickory Corners, Michigan. The Model Hwould serve as a showcase for Checker at autoshows across the country. What better guy to restorethe Model H, but the guy who built them in thetwenties!According to the Thomas interview. Morris Markinwould use Stout to assess investmentopportunities. Stout assessed the possibility ofChecker acquiring Tucker back in 1947.Stout was also dispatched in 1964 to determine ifChecker should acquire Studebaker.Checker would eventually purchase a significantportion of the Studebaker truck factory partsinventory, Checker at the time used many OEMparts from the Studebaker, brakes, wheels,steering etc.When Jim Stout left Checker is not quite clear. Thelast documented evidence of engineering workdates back to January 23, 1965. The firstaddressee on an Engineering Change Memo forchanges to arm rests, it appears that Stout was stillemployed by Checker.11

Engineering Memo’s distribution lists changed inJanuary 1965, the new format utilized a generaldistribution reference, so just because Stout namedisappears on the memos after January 1965, does notindicate that Stout left CMC.It’s also highly likely that Stout served Checker as aconsultant or advisor well into the 1980’s. In the early90’s Checker leader Steve Wilson was involved withthe CMC procurement of a 1935 Checker Model Y andits restoration, its highly likely Mr. Stout helped hisfriend Wilson out, Jim had firsthand knowledge of theModel Y. Stout held the Model Y in high regardingmaintaining that it had the best engine ever put in aChecker.Jim Stout was a close friend with Morris Markin. Inlater years, Stout would tell the story how Markin toldhim “ He (Markin) was going to make me a richman”. Jim Stout passed away in 1996, In the long runStout may not have made millions of dollars, but heindeed lived a rich life.Stout was happily married for 68 years. Raisedthree children and had over 9 grandchildren. Helived in rural Michigan and participated in theChecker hobby right up to his death in 1996.12

According to the brochure rust is the most seriousproblem confronting automobile manufacturers. Itfurther explains that each Checker has a zincchromate red oxide primer covering the body. Alldetachable parts would also be treated with a“thermos plastic sealer” to protect the Checkerfrom rust. To complete the rust proofingprocedures, Checker would apply TexacoCompound L to pillars, the lower sections of alldoors, trunk and to the space below the rearquarter windows.Checker and Texaco Compound LChecker Motors Corp M-10M-8 is a veryinteresting brochure that leaves it’s readers todaywith one major question. But before we ponder thatsingle question let’s recap the brochure. Thebrochure is titled “Now! Checker Puts Proof IntoRust Proofing”.A well knowned product, Compound L wasoriginally developed for industrial and railwayapplications. Back in the late ’50s or early 60’s aSales Engineer in New Orleans tested it at aTexaco sulfur processing facility and found it to beoutstanding at guarding against rust.The Type L Texaco rustproofing compound isessentially wool grease with 1 to 3% stearic acid.13

Excellent long-term rust protection — Petrolatumand special additive system form a nonhardening, self sealing film to protect surfacesagainst the elements. Good water displacingcapabilities ensures that the protective film is alsowaterproof. The special rust inhibitor systemensures maximum protection against corrosiveattack. Good penetrating characteristics ensuredifficult-to-reach seams and crevices receiveeffective corrosion protection.Fatty wool grease is a fatty, pale yellow wax that coatsthe fibers of sheep’s wool and yields lanolin, also calledwool fat. The acid provides a mild etch of the substratefor better adhesion. There are other formulations of thiscompound such as for painted surfaces. Minimum surface preparation required — Abilityto penetrate existing flaky or heavy rust meansthat little or no preliminary cleaning of metalsurfaces is required before application. Thispenetrating ability makes existing rust easier toremove, should it be considered desirable to doso for a better or more economical job.Today on the according to Chevron Texaco, CompoundL provides the following advantages in protection withmultiple applications. Minimal cost — Self-sealing properties of theprotective film minimizes the need for touch-upswhen film damage occurs through scratches or14

brush marks. The overall cost of this soft film rustprotection is much less than ordinary paint. Easy removal — Soft protective film is readily soluble inpetroleum solvent or kerosine to enable easy removalwhen required.According to Checker’s Graphic Illustration Sheet No.264 titled Rust Proofing – Aerobus (TEXACO) datedOctober 1st 1965, the application of Texaco Compound Lwas extremely liberal. The engineeringillustration, instructions from engineering to theassembly team, adds additional application areasbeyond what is described in the brochure. Theinstructions called for application for quarter panels,Anybody who owns a Checker is well aware of thefenders, drip rails, body seams and body fenders wellssignificant rust issues found in Checkers.

Massive Glut of Checker in the Classic CarMarketplaceLook out below! A massive Checker supply glut is onceagain sending Checker prices into a tailspin. Over the lastsix months well over 40 Checkers have come to the old carmarketplace. In June of 2017, seven Checkers passedthrough the auction block and were sold at an averageprice of 1700.00.Across multiple old car web sites, Craig’s List, ClassicCars and Hemmings over 31 Checkers are currently forsale! Anybody who has taken an Economics 101 class willquickly understand what’s happening in themarketplace .more supply than demand. Despite therecent sales prices overall still seem high and many of theCheckers currently for sale have been on the market formore than a year!Now there are several ways of looking at this, if you are abuyer great, there are potential deals on Checkers downthe road as sellers reduce their prices. If you’re a seller,yourRusty and dirty this former taxi is oddly priced at 6494.00.Recently on the market, this will probably remain on the market foryears.Checker is competing for buyers at a time whenthere are more sellers than buyers, it may take awhile to sell. Additionally prices seem to be allover the map so pricing realignment is in order.17

Reviewing the various classified ads you’ll see a wideranges of prices. The recent auctions cars were allparts or restorable Checkers, so essentially the bottommarket for parts cars is about 1500.00. On the highend two 1982 Checkers fall within the 30K-35Krange. Both of those Checkers have been for sale forover a year.Too few buyers in the market place, sellersperhaps pricing too high will yield many unsoldCheckers, the glut will continue for some time. All32 Checker currently on the market can be foundin the new “Checkers For Sale” section of theICTA websiteA wide ranges of Checkers fall in to a ranges of 4000.00 to 10,000.00. Very reasonable, but again,some of these vehicles have been for sale for close to ayear. Another chunk fall into the 10,000.00 to 20,000.00 range and again many of these Checkersseem have been for sale for one to two years!Given there are only really about 150 active members of theICTA, currently there is about one Checker for sale for every4-5 active ICTA member. Over the last 10 years we haveseen other Checker club’s membership declinesignificantly, Assuming that most current ICTA membersalready own one or two Checkers, the sad fact is that manyof these Checker currently on the market will most likelyremain on the market for a long time.18

Former CCCofA President Dick Thomas 1929 – 2017Dick Thomas was quite a character. You will not find too many guys like Dick, adevout car guy and Checker fan, he applied a strong educational background to hishobby, both in design and modeling.Dick took over the presidency of the Checker Car Club of America at a very difficulttime, after the passing of long time president Steve Wilson. Ultimately, Dick wasinstrumental in keeping the club on its proper footing. Dick was one of key leadersto develop a board structure for the CCCofA to insure that the club continuedforward.An avid Checker fan, years earlier Dick designed a new lookfor the Checker Marathon, utilizing fiberglass components andother off the shelf automotive parts. Conceived in the late70’s the car, called the Checker Summit never made it beyondthe early design phases. Dick did build one prototype andpitched the idea to Checker Motor Corp., the project waspassed on and conventional Checker production continueduntil 1982.19

Back in the 80’s Dick developed a series of scaledChecker models and as a small cottage industrymanufacturer, sold his Checker models all over theworld. You could always count on Dick to present a largeinventory on display in the back of his Aerobus at thevarious Checker shows he organized. Today these samemodels are highly sought after by Checker fans.As president of the CCCofA, Dick largely promoted thehistorical aspects of Checker. Prior to the death of longtime Checker employee Jim Stout, Dick was able tosecure an extended interview with Mr. Stout, so importantin preserving Checker history, Dick would pen manyarticles for the CCCofA.Perhaps the happiest this writer ever saw Dick was whenhe was behind the wheel of the famous 1941 CheckerModel A. Dick wrote “I was privileged to drive the 41 ablock to the truck, which brought it, and to raise theretractable Landua Hardtop. Cameras were flashing allthe way to the transport truck. I was in “hog heaven!”.Summit PrototypeDick behind the wheel of the Model A20

Last Working Fleet of Checkers For SaleOn July 27th 1999, New York Times reporterJodi Wilgoren penned the article “Last NewYork Checker Turns Off the Meter forGood”.The article described taxicab driver EarlJohnson’s last day driving his Checker, thelast Checker taxicab licensed by the NewYork’s Taxi and Limousine Commission.The story shared what many Checkerowners already know, the Checker isunique and brings great happinesswherever they are driven. One of the lastriders of the day was Ms. RobertaHorton. Ms. Horton had a great take onthe Checker. According to Ms. Horton “TheChecker is the ultimate urban luxury” shewent on to say, “It’s such a grand car, it’s avehicle that belongs to New York City”.Photo Source Joe Fay 2016 23

But as any Checker fan knows, the Checker cab istruly a global car with a fan following all over theworld. Yes, the Checker is beloved by million, and itdoes seem to be associated as a New York icon,but many fleets of Checkers continued to serverwell beyond the last Checker serving New York.Wilgoren did report “Other cities still have Checkercabs, the bulbous vehicles with the ponderous1950’s design. There are Checkers around the citythat are no longer cabs, painted pink or purple oreven checkered all over. There are companiescalled Checker Cab, even if their cars are Dodges orFord. But since production of the plant inKalamazoo, Michigan ceased, in 1982, 60 yearsafter it began, the Checkers have been a dyingbreed.” Fast forward to 2017 and you will still findChecker serving customers across the US, but notfor long.The last large Checker fleet will be coming downsoon. All of the Checker in the fleet are available forsale. The owner of the N.Y. Cab and Limo Servie ofClearwater, John Didomizio says “I’m getting readyto retire so I’m going to start selling off my Checkercollection”.Built out of frustration, the fleet was started back in2009, according to DiDomizio, he was tired of hearingabout how Clearwater cab companies were “ripping off24

by hitting the 1.00 fuel surcharge button repeatedly, jacking up fares, showing up in old former cop carsthat were filthy and often had drivers that smelled badly, spoke little English, or simply taking people the“long way” to their destination. John decided to do something about it.The “Fix” was to start a real competing cab company and simply drive the shady operators off the beach.Putting his money where his mouth is, and being a collectable car enthusiast. John had two vintageChecker Cabs shipped down from Canada and “opened the doors” with a policy of first class service. Tothis day, most often drivers will open and close the car door for you. The first reason is service – thesecond reason is to make sure passengers in the old Checker Cabs are secure and the heavy steeldoors are in fact closed properly.For close to ten years John has built a significant fleet of Checkers. All were restored and brought backto a condition where they could again provide reliable taxicab service 24 hours a day. John currently hasa fleet of about ten cars ranging from model years 1961 to 1982. Sadly it will soon be the end of theline. Single Checker taxicab servce can still be found around the country, but this is now really the endof the line for daily Checker fleet operations.Condition and pricing for the Checkers vary, all vehicles had an extensive restoration prior to the start ofservice in Clearwater. John is ready to sell and can be contacted at 727-543-4111.25
