1904 Oldsmobile Model 6C Standard Runabout

    1904 Oldsmobile Model 6C Navigation
    This car's serial number indicates that it is an early 1904 Oldsmobile 6C, and its ownership is known from John H. Young, the first owner, through Bob Ames, who drove the car in the 1984 London to Brighton Run to the Richard C. Paine Automobile Collection Charitable Trust which acquired the car in 1993.

    Oldsmobile produced 2,233 examples of the 6C in 1904. This runabout is powered by a single-cylinder, water-cooled, transverse-mounted four-horsepower engine paired with a two-speed planetary transmission with reverse.

    Oldsmobile
    Oldsmobiles built from 1901 to 1907 are generally referred to as 'Curved Dash Oldsmobiles,' although a few special models did not feature the distinctive canoe-shaped dash. During that time, approximately 500 vehicles were built, making Oldsmoible the first mass-produced American car.

    No auction information available for this vehicle at this time.
