Buffum

Buffum

The Buffum was an American automobile manufactured from 1901 until 1906. A product of Abington, Massachusetts, it is chiefly remembered for its flat-eight model, which appeared in 1904. Herbert Buffum, founder of the company, also produced a lighting dynamo in 1905; he was a poor businessman, however, and the company folded the next year.
