From 1926 to 1928, a car known as the Overland Whippet was in production. It was made by Overland, which was absorbed by Kaiser-Jeep and from there probably to Chrysler. The remains of this Overland Whippet, which includes the steering wheel, is on display with other abandoned vehicle relics at a roadside restaurant called Hilbilly Hotdogs at Lesage WV.
