Re: Pneumatic Vehicles?
Try Googling "Amish"+"Compressed Air" or "Amish"+"Pneumatic Tools", they are big users. Of course they use diesel engines to drive their compressors, but that could just as easily be a wind or water mill.

Re: Pneumatic Vehicles?
Check out MDI air cars, they had a nice little 20kw motor, but i think struggled with the low power density of stored compressed air.
