GROUT STEAM CAR WITH LAMPS5/17/2020 Billings Cooke Tilly's grand adventure After a successful first outing yesterday,I decided to add some of Tilly's jewelry. The lights, the lamp for the boiler sight gauge and the mirror for viewing the sight gauge. All of these things are beautiful as well as functional. All of the leather is original to the car. It has been cleaned and conditioned. Steaming yesterday showed a couple of steam leaks and a leak in the piping from the hand pump to the steam chest. Steam leaks are fixed, oil pipegets attention tomorrow. These are some beauty shots I took today before I stopped for the day.

Preheater for Likamobile5/3/2020 Jim Trotta writes: My new water pre-heater which uses exhaust steam thru heat exchange. The water side has water from the water pumps to boiler. This is so you can use heat from the exhaust steam to heat the incoming water. This helps greatly as your not putting cold water into the boiler. Hood Steam Car5/3/2020 The Hood Steam Car, produced in Massachusetts by the Simplex Motor Vehicle Company between 1900 and 1901. It featured a single-acting, four cylinder engine with a magnetic admission valve, with the exhaust ports being opened by the pistons. The intake valves were operated by three small electric batteries, and superheated steam was produced in a flash boiler. Little more is known of this make of Steam Car, if you have any further information please contact us. Anthony Theriault is looking for more information on the marque, and provided the photos of a survivor below. |
