- Birmingham Motors was a United States based automobile company. Organized in 1920, it was tentatively in business only from 1921 through 1923. The Birmingham offered a number of unusual features, including a type of swing axle suspension and exterior finishes of Dupont Fabrikoid instead of paint. Failure to generate capital for factory investment hobbled Birmingham. A political scandal involving the mayor of Jamestown, New York who was the company's titular President resulted in Birmingham Motors going out of business. Only about 50 Birmingham autos were built; none are known to have survived to the 21st century.
