Oldsmobile Light Eight

Automobiles

The Oldsmobile Light Eight was an automobile produced by the Oldsmobile Division of General Motors in roadster, two-door coupe and four-door sedan forms between 1916 and 1923. It was powered by a sidevalve V8 engine, the maker's first, shared with the 1916 Oakland Model 50. The Light Eight was an all new platform produced at the Lansing Car Assembly, with its engine sourced from Northway Engine Works and coachwork supplied by Fisher Body. It was more expensive than the market favorite Ford Model T but offered the durability of a V8 and a wider range of bodystyles.
