It was an assembled car, only the engine was home-made using the patented Charles Knight system ( Knight had his name on over 30 different cars like Willys Knight, Lions Knight, Moline Knight, Stearns Knight, Handley Knight etc. )
The STERLING KNIGHT was a short lived company (1923 - 1926). By the end of 1924 253 cars had been built and 121 cars followed in 1925 and a few more were built in 1926 so every Sterling Knight emblem is a hard to find item.
