Ceco (United States) - AllCarIndex

Continental Engine Company, also known as CECO, was an American automobile manufacturer that operated briefly from 1914 to 1915. The company was based in Minneapolis, Minnesota, before relocating to Chicago, Illinois. CECO specialized in the production of cyclecars, a type of lightweight automobile that was popular in the early 20th century.

The primary model produced by CECO was originally named the Continental. It featured a 12-horsepower, four-cylinder air-cooled engine and utilized a friction transmission system. The company offered various body styles, including a roadster, a tandem two-seater, and delivery models, with prices ranging from $350 to $395.

After the company's move to Chicago, one of the partners, John Pfeffer, chose to remain in Minneapolis to develop his own cyclecar, which he named the Baby Moose. Despite its short operational period, CECO contributed to the early automotive landscape in the United States during the cyclecar craze.
