BROWNIEKAR (US) 1908-1911
Omar Motor Co., Newark, New Jersey

This was a very small 2-seater roadster on a 66in (1676mm) wheelbase powered by a 3HP single-cylinder which gave it a top speed of 10mph (16km/h). It was described as 'a toy designed for harmless sport and amusement of the young folks' and it was claimed that it could be operated by any intelligent child of 8 years or more. The price was a modest $150. It was designed by William H. Birdsall, chief engineer of the Mora company. The maker's name Omar, was a convenient anagram of Mora.

Cool!

I'm pretty sure the name is spelled as "kar", not "car" -- at least that's how I see it in every place but your source.

Anyway, I'm just glad I remembered I'd seen it here; I almost reposted it.
