The Argonne was an American automobile manufactured from 1919 to 1920 by the Jersey City Machine Co. of Jersey City, New Jersey.[1]
Only 24 were produced before the company folded. The prototype car was a sports roadster with an aluminum body crafted by the Schutte Body Co. of Lancaster, Pennsylvania. It was powered by an inline-four Buda engine. A Rochester-Duesenberg power plant was also available. Production models included a roadster on a 118-inch (3,000 mm) wheelbase, and some sources[which?] list an open Tourer model on a 132-inch (3,400 mm) wheelbase.
The marque featured a sharply pointed radiator similar to that found on the Austro-Daimler.[clarification needed]
