  • Superb! Is there any evidence that the original ever worked properly? If it was half as good as this then it beats Trevithick!

  • Superb! Cugnot's Fardier was the first car, but this seems a much more practical looking machine. However for me Trevithick's 1803 London Steam Carriage really was the true start of powered road vehicles.

    Would love to see this in the flesh, great work and research.

  • Ihr seid ja wahnsinnig ! Wie habt ihr das gebaut ?

    Does the Murdoch automobile has a clutch ?

  • I'm afraid I do not write or speak German but a friend has written the following for me. It is posted in 2 parts. because of size allowed

  • Das Murdoch Flyer hat keine Kupplung. Es hat ein einzeln doppelganger Zylinder (drucken & ziehen). Wenn es instatische Weise ist, die Getriebe sind ausgekuppelt. Zu fahren, der Dampf Regler erst geschlossen wird. Dann, die Schaltenhabel geruckt ist, um die Getriebe zu kuppeln. Der Fahrer sitzt forne, aber die Schaltenhabel und Getriebegehauser sind zu hintern. Ein Hilfskraft muss die Schaltenhabel bedienen, und langsam (12kph) oder sehr langsam (6kph) wahlen.

  • Zwei Das Flyer muss dann bei Hand aufgestellt sein, so dass der Kolben im besten Position ist, um vorwarts zu gehen, als der Dampf Regler geoffnet ist bein Fahrer.

    Zu halten, der Regler geschlossen wird, und die Handbremse angewenden ist. Der Hilfskraft muss die Schaltenhabel wieder im statische Position wahlen, um die Getriebe aus zu kuppeln.

    Hoffentlich dieses gibt ihn was zie versuchen uber der Flyer.

  • The VARDIER , the first automobile , from France also had no brake !! French people ask : "Why you use brakes ??? You don´t need it ! " . They were inventors of the first car accident of the world !! In this way they built cars until today. I have a Peugeot and I am really suffering much. ( I had 3 AUDI 100 from Germany the last 20 years . One driving 1/2 million kilometers !!! Yesterday night I dreamed of an old AUDI 100 I was driving in my sleep . It was a nice dream !! ).
