Brand History
In 1897, Ransom E. Olds founded American automobile manufacturer, Oldsmobile in Lansing, Michigan. A pioneer in the industry, Oldsmobile was revered for its testing of innovative designs and groundbreaking automobile technology. In fact, Oldsmobile was the first high-volume gasoline-powered car manufacturer in the world. For over a century, the producer of luxury and mainstream vehicles represented all-American ingenuity. Although the company ceased operations in 2004, Oldsmobile continues to be a staple in America’s car manufacturing history.
The Oldsmobile Curved Dash (produced between 1902 and 1904) was the first car to ever be mass-produced. A piece of American history, the Curved Dash is one of Sean O’Grady, MD’s all-time favorite vehicles. Now considered pre-classic in nature, the Curved Dash is quickly becoming a forgotten piece of the past. Through his research efforts, Sean O’Grady, MD hopes to highlight the importance of this vehicle in automobile history.
