How amazing! The age of steam was fantastic!
Yes it was. I'm using an old set of plans from the 1960s (I think) for my car. It's called the "Educator" steam buggy. It should also go around 40 mph when complete, perhaps a bit faster.

I am most impressed.
I recall my dad having a Stanley Steamer in the barn. It was his intent to restore it but he never had the time, so his brother expressed interest in it. He gave it to his brother, who stored it in his barn ...as luck would have it, the barn as struck by lightening and burned to the ground with the Stanley in it. Sad.

1960s
Is it a 60s design or is it based on the old steam engine cars? I wonder if it would be considered street legal?
