O-We-Go Car
O-We-Go (1914)

Die O-We-Go Car Company war ein US-amerikanischer Automobilhersteller, der nur im Jahre 1914 in Owego (New York) ein Cyclecar herstellte. Gegründet wurde die Firma am 4. Februar 1914 von George Ramsey, einem bekannten New Yorker Bankier, und W. I. Payne, der Verbindungen zur Standard Oil Company besaß. Konstruiert wurde der O-We-Go von Charles B. Hatfield jr..

Der Wagen besaß einen V2-Motorradmotor von Ives, der 12 bhp (8,8 kW) entwickelte. Es gab einen Roadster für US-$ 385,--, einen Pritschenwagen für US-$ 395,-- und einen geschlossenen Lieferwagen für US-$ 405,--.

Bereits am 30. Oktober 1914 wurde die Fertigung wieder eingestellt und im Januar 1915 stellte die Firma einen Konkursantrag. Mindestens ein O-We-Go hat bis heute überlebt.
