Ask Dr. "Z"
A guy in France (Nicolas Joseph Cugnot in 1769) invented a steam powered
three wheel vehicle.One night he fired it up (it would only go at less than a walking speed) and the vehicle bumped into the side of a building.It had a big copper boiler up front and a sort of a ratchet cog front wheel drive system.Actually,a guy in Italy invented a spring wound vehicle,but it never went anywhere.Benz was a ''Johonny come lately''. www.devilfinder.com The First French steam powered vehicle cuhulin |
