Great idea... wonder if there is anything that can be repurposed for this? Model steam engine boiler? smile

For air in and out I think some faux airplane (Spitfire style?) exhaust stack(s) either side of the front boot (inlet pointing forward, exhaust out) with a suitably trimmed cut-out in the bonnet (aka hood), trunked to the oil cooler with thermostat-controlled fan... would be a good Stage 2 mod!
