The Horsey Horseless was an early automobile created by Uriah Smith in Battle Creek, Michigan. It contained a wooden horse head and neck attached to the front of the car to make it resemble a horse and carriage. It was known to be created in 1899 but no one knows if it was made. The horse head was hollow to hold fuel. It is on Time magazine's worst car list.[1] References1. ^{{cite news |first= |last= |authorlink= |title=1899 Horsey Horseless |url=http://www.time.com/time/specials/2007/article/0,28804,1658545_1657686,00.html |quote=Somewhere between an early car and the head-in-the-bed scene in The Godfather, the Horsey Horseless, the brainfart of inventor Uriah Smith of Battle Creek, Mich., was intended to soothe the skittish nerves of our equine servants. |work=Time magazine |year=2008 |accessdate=2008-12-08}} External links
