Brooks Steam Motors Ltd. was founded by Oland J. Brooks in 1923 in Straford, Ontario at the intersection of three railways that would later become CN. He therefore had access to tradesmen trained in the manufacturing of steam technology readily available for his project. The car was probably originally in the Gordon E. Smith collection. Mr Baechler will confirm (2011)

Function

Owner driven passenger vehicle for general transportation.

Technical

"The cars closely resembled the Stanley Steamers in terms of engineering although the design of all the components were too Oland J. Brooks design team, with influence from many earlier steam cars" (from the steam car club of Great Britain, Brooks Steamotors limited)
