Fuhr Motors was an American automotive manufacturer based in Lake Grove, New York, that operated around the early 1980s. The company specialized in producing unique sports cars, with its most notable model being the Fuhr Osage.
The Fuhr Osage was a two-seat sports car characterized by its distinctive gull-wing doors and a wedge-shaped body design. It was built on a Volkswagen Beetle chassis, which provided a reliable foundation for the vehicle. The body of the Osage was constructed from fiberglass, incorporating a foam inner layer for added structural integrity and lightweight performance.
The design of the Osage featured angular window treatments that allowed for the use of flat-paned glass, contributing to its unconventional aesthetic. Despite its innovative design, the production of Fuhr Motors and the Osage was limited, and the company did not achieve widespread recognition in the automotive industry.
