Just look at the full size version, and the details of how they made a relatively sized full cab for her in place of an ordinary back seat in a 7 passenger touring car, and just below and behind the driver is a set of stairs, and a regular trunk under the footman on the back. Thanks to Navarro Zonta who shared this with Nik of http://carrosantigos.wordpress.com/ who finds all the coolest stuff!
Bottom two images are from a great source of info and factory sales brochure images: http://www.american-automobiles.com/Cole-1919-1925.html Wednesday, March 30, 2011

Why he's riding a big wheel / pennytfarthing on rails is anyone's guess... but I'm guessing he was a SOB to work for
There has to be a reason for the strange design angle of the steam engine, I'm going to guess it was for big uphill angles so the heat exchanger tubes would be level
Above is Ridgeway Railway Museum
Above is a Packard

Wooden sports car has only one seat in front, but can carry two passengers on a wooden bench behind him. If want to have it pegged the price is $ 40,000 dollars.
Wooden Car from Ukraine
Vasily Lazarenko wanted to make something other than another when you first think about the parts of automobile parts and its business appears to succeed.
In the town where he lived in Chernovtsny, Ukraine, Vasily takes one and a half years to bring together a unique vehicle, convertable, luxurious saloon and wrap it all with oak wood (oak). He said he would sell his car if the buyer is able to neutralize the cost for the next creative project to another. How well?
