Re: Re: Automotive History trivia part III

Are you refering to the V-16 engined Miller race car? I'm not sure if it was made in 1932 though. I think it was front wheel drive too. Speaking of early American FWD, if you look at George Selden's patented car, which he claimed to have invented in 1877, you'll notice that it's front wheels are the powered ones! I think that beats everything else for being the first fwd car!
