The Staver was an American automobile manufactured at 76th and Wallace Streets in Chicago, Illinois, [Clymer, Floyd. "Treasury of Early American Automobiles, 1877-1925" (New York: Bonanza Books, 1950), p.104.] from 1907 until 1914.

The company's initial offerings were 18/20hp high wheelers, but after two years, production was turned over to conventional four-cylinder models, which came in torpedo or touring bodywork.

For 1911, Staver offered a tourer at US$1600 and a five-seat open torpedo at US$1850. [Clymer, p.104.] By contrast, the Brush Runabout was at US$485, [Clymer, p.104.] the high-volume Oldsmobile Runabout went for US$650, [Clymer, p.32.] the Colt Runabout and Cole 30 at US$1500, [Clymer, p.63.] the Oakland 40 US$1600, [Clymer, p.84.] an FAL for US$1750, [Clymer, p.104.] an Enger 40 US$2000, [Clymer, p.104.] and the American's base model was US$4250. [Clymer, p.91.]

1914's Staver 65 had a 452in3 (7413 cc) monobloc six.
