Reply to "First mid-engine road car in History was the René-Bonnet Djet"

Before 1910 there were 100's of mid engine horseless carriages built across the country. Most are companies that built less tha a dozen and folded with little history of their existence.

Small product cars bordered on hobby and experiments.

However, the first mass produced car and the fist production line vehicle . . . Not the model T . . . Was the 1901 Curved dash Oldsmobile.

It was mid engine , afordable and built for the masses. One was driven coast to coast in 1902 and there is a book of their adventure.
