Mercury (cyclecar)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Mercury was a cyclecar built in Detroit, Michigan by the Mercury Cyclecar Company in 1914. The Mercury had a self-supporting body that eliminated the need for a chassis frame. The vehicle was equipped with a two-cylinder air-cooled 9 hp engine. It used a friction transmission and belt final drive. Body styles came in a monocar, a tandem two-seater and a light van.
