Real life Cugnot steam car.
A real thing as it sits in the museum Arts et Metiers in Paris. It is the original, it's preserved, believe it or not. A couple of replicas were also made, and they were running. It's my son Matthew standing in front it. We visited the museum a few years ago.

If you live in the US, a replica might be closer to see! -pic

Have there been more than one Cugnot steam tractor?.
I heard, that Napoleon used the Cugnot to pull guns over the Alpes
