I guess it is something made for movie. It does not even appear to be self propelled - there is no drive system. |

You're right. I don't even see a bicycle chain. Any chance this is some pre-Quadricycle failed experiment of Henry's? |

No, Henry F is the boy in the thumb. It was (in film) first car he has ever seen. |

Maybe this is supposed to represent the Westinghouse portable steam engine mentioned here in the section on his early life - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henry_Ford |

Here is the real thing - http://www.smokstak.com/gallery/showimage.php?i=3311&c=65 - although I see it states it was first made in 1886 when Ford would have been 23. |
