Oh, let's have a go!
Is it European?

Paul Jaray · April 23, 2010, 05:58:24 PM

Not European...

Tackitt · April 23, 2010, 06:29:16 PM

It is a big car. Is it internal combustion-propelled?

Keep going....you are on the right track...

Built on a truck chassis?

Is it a 1925 Delling Six passenger Phaeton?
Powered by a three-cylinder, double-acting steam engine rated at a maximum 62hp?

guido66 · April 24, 2010, 06:46:26 AM

a steam engine is an external combustion engine, not internal

Tackitt · April 24, 2010, 07:36:28 AM

Mr. Jaray did not say that it was internal combustion.

Correct!
You've been able to read between the lines!
Well done!
One well deserved point for you!

I'm sure you meant the other 50% of Delling's production, the Five-Passenger Sedan, because the Phaeton was quite different...

You're right. I got carried away when I found the description in one of my steam books.
