Hi
I know the boiler is ine the wrong place on the chassis, but this appears to be a shaft drive Leyland.

Have you asked the BCVM if they can ID the photo?

Does anyone have more info on this wonderful child's car of the 1920s/1930s era? It was powered by compressed air, but can anyone confirm whether it was a one-off or a production toy?
