The car is powered by an 18-inch boiler and burner (3-inch bore and 4-inch stroke), producing 10 horsepower.
A world speed record of 127.6 mph was set by a 1906 Stanley Steamer. The sequence of events are, light the pilot, turn on the gas, produce steam and off you go. It takes about one-half hour from lighting the pilot until you start to drive.
The vehicle holds 26 gallons of water and 13 gallons of gas and weighs approximately 1,000 pounds. The 30-inch X 3-inch white rubber tires are mounted on wood-spoke-wheels. The car cost $600 new, which was a small fortune in 1906.
