For the older cars it would have been the size of the components, easier to go the length of the car with the components being larger and making less power than modern equivalents. It’s a lot easier to keep the rotation axis the same for as far as possible through the system. When you have 5ft of engine and a manual transmission behind it ( conveniently at the driver’s reach) it just makes sense.
