Adams was an automobile introduced manufactured by the Adams Manufacturing Co. Ltd. from 1903 to 1906.[1] It was developed by H. Adams, of Tunbridge Wells, Kent, England, who offered a conversion set that converted horse-drawn carriages into motorized automobiles. The engine was mounted on a swivelling fore-carriage, and steering was achieved through wheel and vertical column. In 1905, Adams produced a small two-cylinder car sold under the name 'One of the Best'.
