Half-Scale Stanley Steam Car For Sale12/19/2019 Half Scale Stanley Steam Car Year built-Unknown Boiler test- New hydraulic and steam tests Length - 1850mm Width- 950mm Height- 980mm (Excluding removable windscreen) Price- £8,995 A rare opportunity to own a very unique piece of model engineering. This is a fully operational, 1:2 scale replica of the famous Stanley Steam car 4 seater. It was built in the Netherlands and comes with extensive images of the build and boiler drawings (present but in Dutch). This car is currently undergoing boiler test and is being sold to include a new hydraulic, cold and steam test by a very reputable boiler inspector, as such it is being sold ready to go. The car itself is gas fired and is designed to allow the driver to sit on the perch on top of the front seats. The wheels are wooden and the body has been finished to a high standard to produce a very pretty, authentic little steam car. There are a few small points of damage to the paint but only wear and tear and nothing which takes away from its character. It comes with a pair of nice size brass, electric headlamps for the front and a removable windscreen; this is all presented in a custom box which comes with the car. The water tank is under the driver seat with the gas under the rear seat and the boiler under the bonnet. The engine itself is a double action piston located under the rear of the car all mounted on a fully sprung chassis. Fitted is also a very entertaining hooter horn. It is highly recommended that you arrange to view this car so you can get a feel for the scale of it and whether it would be suitable for you to drive. £8,995 We had this example for sale a couple of years ago. The owner has enjoyed ownership and is asking us to sell it to make way for a new venture. Therefore, the photos in this ad are from when the car was last on our premises; since then it has been well looked after and has had no notable changes aside from being commissioned for use. For more information, please speak to Matt or Sean on 01392 833301. As with all of our vehicles, we highly recommend viewing them in person. Whilst this example is not currently on our premises, it can be arranged with prior notice to be on site of we can liaise with the seller to show it to you where it currently lives in Cornwall.

It is an exceptional and truly sorted example, with an excellent background documented in a large folder of accompanying paperwork. It is an example of a 10hp four-seat open top Runabout, built originally in 1910. It is in good running condition with excellent paintwork and looks stunning. It has recently, in 2016, had a new boiler, made by J Goold; a reputable name in steam car boiler making. As such, amongst the intensive paperwork accompanying this car, we have a boiler certificate dated to expire towards the end of 2020. In an attempt to interpret the receipts and small snippets of writeups within the paperwork, I have managed to put together something of a timeline of this car's more recent life. This car left the Stanley workshop in 1910 as one of 352 other Type 60 Stanley’s to leave the shop that year. It is number 5491 and engine number 6--440. It spent its life in the USA, being converted into a boy racer looking machine in 1922 (the photos are something to behold!) Eventually, it came into the ownership of a Geary Baese of Fort Collins, Colorado in need of a complete restoration. We have some photos of how Mr. Baese first saw this car and his highly skilled input to the project is documented. In 2006 the car was sold as a partially complete project and it was at this point that it was bought by a gentleman in the UK who imported it and completed it to a high standard. It has since changed hands a couple of times, needing a new boiler in 2016 which was fitted and it is now presented for sale as a well sorted example of a sought after but hard to come by, well traceable and documented Type 60 Stanley. It has been converted to a gas pilot with two gas canisters. Once ignited, it runs on a kerosene. It is road registered and includes the V5C on the registration number BF 4908 - being under the historic vehicle tax band, it is, of course, tax and MOT exempt. A fantastic opportunity to buy a unique machine which epitomises the look of the steam car. Restored and maintained to a high standard, this would want for no more than generally maintenance work wise and would be ready to go for the 2020 season. Asking Price - £49,995 As with any of our listed vehicles, we always recommend viewing in person. This steam car is based on our premises and so is available for viewing during our opening hours. Please do give us a call in advance of viewing to let us know you are on your way.
