I was foiled by my arch nemesis/co conspirator Jason Torchinsky on the first installment of !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! , so here's a second take.
Ok, I know the answer to this one, but let's see what you guys think. When was this car made?

In a Monday by the looks of it. (1885 is the real guess)

It was made for the first ever burning man festival in 1879. It's actually pedal powered and that front part is just a giant bong.

You just ruined the game by both posting hte accurate time (by 'cheating') and informing everyone else that they can't even guess for fun because they'll be wrong.
EDIT: Goddammit. You're not even correct. I did a reverse search and got a different answer. I'll be a martyr here and not post it.

Cheating? I call it ample use of all available resources.

you are correct! and you'd be a cheater if I had actually set up any rules, but I didn't so, you and Brain Silvestro nail this one.

Amedee Bollee Junior's light two-seater steamer built in 1885. The Bollee family were bell founders in Le Mans who began to built steam carriages in the 1870s.

That big-ass engine makes me think of those old brick-sized cell phones . It's tough being an early adopter of new technology!

From the photo alone, I was going to guess 1890...
