Thanks Dave,
Those big brass "railroad" headlamps were a dead give away for Stanley who were probably the most well known of steam cars.
Looking around the www to be more exact, I think it may be a 1907 Stanley H4 Gentlemans speedy roadster, only two were ever produced.
Imagine the cost then or now ! Blimey..

Like the two Sentinels. I presume there were both Sentinels. Fond of them because they used to haul copper ingots up the A57 to BICC. Saw them frequently.

Yes, remember seeing them on the Dock Road when I was a kid.
