It's been done from the factory at least once:

with nearly 700 cars built. One recently sold at auction for ~$80k...

and a factory prototype Austin (the "Twini Mini") which was refused for 
production after nearly killing John Cooper himself...

Several "tribute" cars are around....

Syncronizing the throttle would be a challenge...

Thanks for the update.

Don't know what you'd call it - but having an engine at each end could be 
useful.

Later, JR
