Browniekar is the name of a cycle car built in Newark, New York, from 1908 to 1911.
This 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., 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.
The Browniekar was developed by William H. Birdsall, the engineer of the Mora Motor Car Company, Mora four- and six-cylinder automobiles built in Newark, too, from 1906 to 1910.
When Birdsall found out that the company's name was not appropriate for a manufacturer, it was changed to ''Omar Motor Car Company'' - Omar being an anagram for Mora.
