FM acquired the Sheffield Velocipede Car Co shortly after the turn of the century and built a series of lightweight gas cars. The bodies were built by Brill and Kuhlman to streetcar design. Approximately 65 of the cars were sold, mostly to short lines and non-electrified interurbans. They were built between 1905 and 1916. In 1933 they tried again with a Chrysler automobile on a Dodge truck chassis. Only one was built and sold to the Escanaba & Lake Superior.
