For Hemmings Motor News, I'm writing up a little piece on the
Veeder Hub-Odometer, those devices you see on heavy truck wheel hubs
that measure mileage. It turned out that Veeder originally started
making them for bicycles in 1895, introduced a car line in 1901 and
still makes them today, 110 years later. That surely places them in very
exclusive company - how many businesses could possibly have done the
same?
I came up with a few immediately - Champion spark plugs, Michelin
tires - but thought it would be fun to see what you smart people can
think of. So your challenge: Identify as many automotive products as you
can which did the same function, under the same brand name, for the duration of the 20th Century. Maybe it's not as small a list as I think.
