That is correct point in fact there's a reason cars aren't this complicated anymore there's just too many potentials for errors or mishaps as Indiana Jones once said "this thing belongs in the museum" for reflection posterity and for development ever more Jay's recent severe burns are result of the incredible intricate complexities of trying to operate this vehicle there is a reason we do have progress not all progress and satisfactory but 1907 there were no roads all in the southwest I'm concerned that Jay may not be so lucky next time

This is the ACTUAL vehicle that recently (Nov. 2022), seriously burned Jay Leno. In this video, as Jay attempts to light the vehicle's burner, you can clearly see the flame briefly burning out of control and the ignited fuel dripping down towards the floor. This is EXACTLY how Jay sustained his burns in this current incident. With Jay's always positive attitude, I trust that Jay will make a full recovery.

It looked like you had to open a small narrow hatch low on the car, peer in, and stick your hand in with a match and if the valve was open too much, it let in a lot of fuel and created a BIG flame. Like lighting a Coleman camping stove with the fuel valve too wide open and being too close to the stove. Not good.

My Uncle Billy Zerega in Wash. D.C. was a Stanley man and had two. One of them was a big six seater and the other was a 2 seater almost like a buckboard with a glass round plate windshield in front and turn handle with no steering wheel. Uncle Billy had many cars like Maxwells and Empires and Oldsmobiles and I loved helping him as a young boy in his basement shop. He made everything from blueprints, by hand and he was a true artisian/craftsman. He built brass lantern and wheels and rolled his own steel. He had a lot of friends in antiques and I miss him. He was a steam fitter by trade and his Steamers were his pride and joys. They called him steamer Billy and he was renowned as one of the best. He was friends with Harra and traded parts annually with him . They collected for each other ! Hes gone know and I havent seen him since 73 when my mom passed away back there.

What I find most amazing about steam cars, is that even though many were made over 100 years ago, the mechanics and engineering involved are still awe inspiring. I can look at them for hours and hours just admiring the way they work and the sophistication with which they were built. I have built a few small model steam engines, the type that sit on a desk as an ornament of sorts. The first project I made after purchasing my mill/lathe combo machine was a small steam engine kit. I wish I had the means to afford a steam car, but for now my model engines are quite nice.

As I stated in an earlier comment, I have a few model steam engines. Out of curiosity, I decided to calculate their power output. My largest steam engine is one I built from scratch with 3" bore and 4.5" stroke, and it runs off a 165psi boiler. According to the formula I followed, it should make about 5.25HP and 70ft/lbs of torque. Impressive for an engine that sits on a shelf in my shop office! It may end up in a golf cart, along with the new 250psi boiler I built, which will be the closest I'm likely to get to owning a steam car. But with all that toque, it should pull just about anything! And with nearly 100psi of extra pressure, it will be making a good bit more power as well!

Another great car. The neat thing about a steam engine is it is double acting, which means you get 2 power impulses per revolution of the crank. On a 2 cylinder double acting compound engine it would be the equivalent of an 8 cylinder 4 stroke engine. The reason for a high pressure and low pressure cylinder is the high pressure steam enters the high pressure cylinder and on the exhaust stroke it is used a second time when it enters the low pressure cylinder. The low pressure cylinder is always larger because the steam is used a second time and the pressure is less hence if you increase the surface area of the piston you can still extract energy from the steam.

One wonders though, in the future will someone like Leno be restoring current vehicles. My guess is its not nearly as likely or prevalent. Even after merely ten or twenty years some sensors and parts become unobtainable and too ridiculous to reverse engineer on a one off basis. The only hope is aftermarket companies creating unlikely amounts of different sensors, harnesses, and computers. The more mechanical it is, the more timeless it is. New vehicles are basically disposable.

I can remember as a kid back in 56 occasionally seeing a White Steam Car go by in North Reading, Massachusetts and tried to follow it on my bicycle but was never able to catch it. I now know why the owner loved that car so much. Never found out what happened to the car after the owner passed. All I knew is he was in his 70's when I first saw the car. Thank You for the education of the White Steam Car.

Maybe with some bogus PPP figure based on the USD.

An ounce of gold would buy a new colt 1911 pistol then, and ounce of gold will buy you a high quality 1911 style pistol today. An ounce of gold would buy you decent attire in rome, it will buy you a decent suit today. I think I'll stick to the gold value calculations.

Dear Jay: Heya, man! Going to keep this pretty short and simple. I've been working on a design for a brand-new type of engine I think could stand of bringing steam back in a big way. It's actually a generator designed for hybrid cars, kind of spiritually derived from a combination of the Doble, a combined-cycle jet engine and another little innovation of mine...the lynchpin of the whole design that makes the whole thing work. I'm looking at a better than 90 percent efficiency when paired with the new axial-flow turbine setup I designed. And it would inherently be one of the cleanest-burning engines on Earth, with no exhaust after-treatment or smog equipment required. It's cheap, light, fairly compact, durable, has about a dozen moving parts, and will run on pretty much any liquid hydrocarbon. And yes, this is completely original...I've researched the Hell out of it. The closest thing to it now is a combined cycle jet engine, and that's an easy ten generations behind this design. I really think this could be the future of hydrocarbon-fueled engines...maybe keeping them viable indefinitely, if we can transition to biofuels. Right now, I'm a little short on people to trust...I don't want it getting stolen, or buried by some automaker in the secret files forever. I just want to put this technology out there in the world...and at the very least force them to play the cards they've been holding by publicizing it. Jay, you're the Steam Guy. Your guys know the engineering. And you're probably the only other person I know with the vision to see what this thing's capable of, and the means to help get it built and publicized. I'm not looking to make a billion dollars off this thing...I just want to make the future happen. and I think steam power, with this design, could be it. If all we do is build the thing and put up a KZbin video to show the world it works, then that would be more than I could have hoped for. I'm going to re-paste this on a few other videos, and hope it gets your attention. And I hope it does. I think you're the one guy who could and would make this thing happen. If you're game, you know how to get hold of me. You can also get a hold of me on Facebook under Richard Rowe, or on Twitter as @invicta1313. Here's hoping you see this, and we can work together soon.

CreeperOnYourHouse Trust me, I've seriously thought about tracking him down at the Amelia Island show. I know he's there every year. Either that or drive to California sometime and just post up outside the garage till he shows up. I don't mind the road trip. LOL...yeah, I'm a writer. But technical (mostly automotive) writing has been my bread and butter for years. I've always had a yen for engineering, mechanics and coming up with machines. I actually had a full ride scholarship to Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University when I was in 10th grade...but I couldn't afford to live in Boca Raton, and I didn't want to engineer airplanes for the rest of my life. Honestly, I don't regret it. Anyway, point is...I've been working on this stuff for years. This engine in particular started development probably 15 years ago, and I've been refining it ever since. It's gotten to the point that it's ready to go together now, and the market's almost ready for it. Nice thing about being a writer...you've got plenty of time and opportunity for other things :)

Thanks Jay. Your passion for preserving old technologies is vastly appreciated. I have thought for many years that the steam engine has not finished running its course. With today's technologies it just seems that a steam-over- electric would be a winner.

Jay, I don't know how to contact you but thought I'd try posting this here since it's kind of related. There's guy restoring old White Yellowstone Park buses. I thought you might find it interesting.
