My thoughts now turned towards the burner

What you see is the burner from my Genny Wren some thing like that only larger or a fuel tank along the back of the seats like the previous pic shown ( yellow one ) not sure but i think it`s an 1906 Ford

I thought this might interest some people playing with it on my desk using the small compressor i added some weight and what you see amounts to 886 grams i think i could have pushed it to 1kg or more so now i think it`s time to get serious. Anyone interested making a car you are welcome to copy what i have just done and believe me it WORKS apart from the initial cost of the engine the rest so inexpensive and i`m sure your skills are better than mine you will have one up and running in no time.  Now i think it`s time i looked at some chassis i might continue to get it running on steam but at the end of the day it will be stripped and the same components used in dare i say a scale model.
Tell me you don`t like this
