CHP to Test Steam Engine Patrol Cars in Smog Fight
California's air pollution drive accelerates as CHP announces two steam powered experimental patrol cars to operate six months. Thermodynamic Systems of Newport Beach and Lear Motors Corp. of Reno supply the engines and chassis, with a 1967 CHP model provided for installation. The program aims to assess two systems at no state cost and to meet stringent performance, durability, and emission criteria.
