It is a big car. Is it internal combustion-propelled?

Is it a 1925 Delling Six passenger Phaeton?
Powered by a three-cylinder, double-acting steam engine rated at a maximum 62hp?

Mr. Jaray did not say that it was internal combustion.

I'm sure you meant the other 50% of Delling's production, the Five-Passenger Sedan, because the Phaeton was quite different... ;)
