A pensioner has spent £24,000 building a steam-powered car for his daily commute to work.
Frank Rothwell, 67, gutted a 50-year-old Land Rover and replaced the original engine with a steam engine.
After dedicating more than 400 hours to the project, the traction engine enthusiast and former contestant on Bear Grylls' The Island proudly took his new motor out for a spin.
