Hi
Not strictly car related, though a brick behind a wheel can stop one rolling away.

A working model of a brick making machine. It is powered but on display it is not having raw materials added to actually produce the miniature bricks
I saw it today and thought you might be interested..

Thanks Penman. Really interesting. It is fortunate that at least a model of the machine exists, as probably no full size units have survived, and if they did, they would be a tad cumbersome for most museums, to say nothing of one's lounge room.
