">BIG BOYS' TOYS!



Following yesterday's picture here is just a little more to interest you. I wonder how much it will sell for. Here's the link for yesterday to make it easy for you -The link - click here


NEW YORK (CNNMoney.com) -- A steam-powered car, billed as the oldest car in the world that still runs, will be sold in a Pebble Beach, Calif., auction in August.

The car was built in France in 1884, about a year before Gottlieb Daimler and Karl Benz of Germany built their first experimental gasoline-powered cars. (The two were working independently of one another.)

Henry Ford, the man many Americans mistakenly believe invented the automobile, built his first car 12 years after this one.


Fascinating isn't it?


What do you think?
