The Piggins was an American automobile manufactured only in 1909 and a truck, which was marketed as the "Practical Piggins" and manufactured between 1911 and 1916. The passenger vehicle was a six-cylinder touring car of 36 hp or 50 hp.[1] The truck, which had an all-gear drive, was offered with four- and six-cylinder gasoline engines and had an open cockpit situated above the motor. Both vehicles were constructed in Racine, Wisconsin by Piggins Brothers, a business founded by Charles R. Piggins and Frederick H. Piggins.
