释义 |
This cute roadster that places two passengers fulfilled two purposes: It was a "toy designed for "harmless sport and amusement of the young folks", and, nevertheless, a real and usable car.[1] Hence the name of the company that built it: Child's Automobile Company. It rode on a wheelbase of 66 inches and had a single-cylinder 4-stroke engine that delivered 3½ hp. Price was just $150.00.[1] The Browniekar was developed by William H. Birdsall, the engineer of the Mora four- and six-cylinder automobiles built in Newark, too, from 1906 to 1910.[1] When Birdsall found out that the company's name was not really appropriate for a manufacturer it was changed to Omar Motor Car Company - Omar being an anagram for Mora.[1] See also
