Founded in 1964 by designer Brooks Stevens in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, Excalibur became famous for combining the dramatic styling of pre-war luxury automobiles with contemporary American performance and reliability. Inspired by the legendary Mercedes-Benz SSK, the original Excalibur featured a long hood, exposed exhaust pipes, sweeping fenders, and powerful Chevrolet V8 engines. Over several generations, the marque evolved into increasingly luxurious grand tourers while retaining its unmistakable neo-classic appearance and hand-built character. Produced in relatively limited numbers, Excaliburs remain distinctive collector automobiles valued for their craftsmanship, flamboyant design, American performance, and unique place in automotive history.
