Bacon Motors Corporation was an American automobile manufacturer based in New Castle, Pennsylvania. The company was founded in December 1919 by Frank Bacon, who had previously attempted to build cars in Nebraska in 1901. Bacon's venture in 1919 focused on producing a roadster that was powered by a 35-horsepower Herschell-Spillman engine.

Tragically, Frank Bacon died in a road accident just a week after the formation of the corporation. Despite his untimely death, his partners expressed intentions to continue the production of vehicles, with ambitious plans to manufacture 25 cars daily by October 1920. However, the company did not achieve significant production, and little further information emerged regarding the Bacon automobiles.
