Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

4 seat Light Touring Car tonneau style body, 2 cylinder steam power. Very origil, runs well, remarkably well preserved, even to origil paint work and gold embellishments. Minimal contemporary features to facilitate use. Much origil upholstery and enough gears, levers, cams, rods and whizbangs to keep a gearhead fascited for years.

Market commentary

Unique and all but impossible to value. A remarkable example of original conception and mechanical design, preserved in near original condition. Potentially more fun (but less useable) than a Dino coupe or E Type.
