Hi Barry,
thank you for your message. There will be no problem to post those photos on the Steam Car Club of Great Britain magazine. Also if you need more info on the engine and better photo resolution I can send them to you. I just don't know how to contact you by e.mail. All the best

what a nice vehicle... so unusual and really spectacular.
I hope you will keep the old paint and patina except all technical parts will be restored for "save driving".
Good luck ![/quote]

Hi Michael, thank you for your message! Unfortunately i'm not able to keep the original colors due to the photo i posted is of 1985. In those years the engine was painted by the previous owner thinking in that way he would preserve better the vehicle. Now, when I bougth it i tried to remove that painting but what i have found under that coat of new paint was not like the photo of 1985.I used the original colors I found on the boiler and carriage chassis to make them new and it will be painted again in the same way it was painted in the XIX century. In a mounth or soo I will post photos of the restoration. The only parts that have original paintings are the wooden wheels. That green is the original one and I have just clean it from dirt and dust. :-)
Thanks, all the best
Davide

Thanks for posting the photos of the steam trycicle. I forgot to write the steam carriage came with a special passenger carriage attached to it. It is not the one shown in the vintage photo of the Montespertoli town fair. That one was made especially for the event. The passenger carriage is now under restoration. :-)
All the best
