History
The Lone Star was available as the Beauty Four (Piedmont model 4-30) with a Lycoming engine or the Beauty Six (Piedmont Model 6-40) with a Continental engine. Both open and closed models were offered. The cars were manufactured for Lone Star by Piedmont Motor Car Company of Lynchburg, Virginia.[1][2]
Advertisements listed the 4-30 model for sale at $1,545 (equivalent to $22,569 in 2022).[2] Lone Star sales ended in 1922 when the Piedmont factory closed.[1]
