Cars can be moved by eolic energy

Dear Mate Kevin,
About a car to be moved by eolic energy, the idea began with a PINWHEEL. Although, at a moment there is no wind passing, a child running with a PINWHEEL, it will turn very rapidly. So, from this observation came the idea to have a propeller on a car roof. I can call this a kit ordered for someone's car. I will emumerate the parts in order to be understood:
1 - A thin peace of metal, having about 1 centimeter of thickness, to be fixed on a car roof; an automobile, for example.
2 - In the center of this thin piece of metal, in a diameter dimension of about 40 square centimeters, the thickness must be of about 2 centimeters. This is the place where an AXE will be placed.
3 - The aforementioned AXE will be fixed on the center of the piece of metal.
4 - The AXE made of a hard metal,will turn on BEARINGS, on the bottom and the top. It will be in a vertical position.
5 - The aforesaid AXE will be made with a propeller fixed on it. Naturally this propller will be on a horizontal position.
6 - The propeller will have its size according to the car roof size.
7 - Under the propeller, paying attention to not cause prejudice to it, a circular mass of metal with a diameter dimension of about 20 centimeters, and a thickness of about 20 centimeters will make part of the AXE.
8 - An electric generator will be fixed on the car roof together with the proper part on the axe, i.e., the CIRCULAR MASS OF METAL.
9 - A round light metal box cover must protect all the complete part on the car roof. In the center of this box the AXE must be fixed in order to have it completely firmed.
10 - The ROUND BOX, considering the car front, must have a wind entry on the left side, sufficient to enter much wind, and behind it an wind exit.
11 - The car will have an electric motor.
12 - According to a mechanic engineer specialist, the proper electric motor must be chosen.
13 - one battery of l50 amperes, OR MORE BATTERIES, according also to mechanic engineers specialists, charged with EOLIC ENERGY from WINDMILLS, must be installed inside the car in a proper place.
14 - Electric wires must be fixed on the generator and must be connected to the batteries.
OBSERVATION: NECESSARY MODIFICATIONS, ACCORDING TO SPECIALISTS, CAN BE MADE.
15 - Now the car can be put to move. As soon as this is happening the propeller, on the car roof, will turn very rapidly, and one will have a car moved by wind energy.
ALL THIS IS THEORY. IT IS NECESSARY TO STUDY THE MATTER, AND AFTER TO MAKE TESTS.

PLEASE NOTE THAT THE ITEM 7 (SEVEN) AT THE END OF THE PARAGRAPH IT IS NOT '20 CENTIMETERS'. IT MUST BE 2 (TWO) CENTIMETERS.

AGAIN, TO CORRECT THINGS, ON THE 10TH PARAGRAPH, AT ITS END, ONE MUST READ: AND BEHIND IT, ON THE RIGHT SIDE, THERE MUST BE A WIND EXIT.

PLEASE NOTE THAT WHEN I WAS A YOUNG MAN I WORKED WITH EXPORTERS IN BRAZIL. BUT, THAT OCCURRED A LONG TIME AGO. I DID NOT STOP STUDYING THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE. NOW, WITH THIS PROGRAM, I AM PRACTICING MY WRITING AGAIN. WHEN SOMETIMES I MAKE A MISTAKE, MY SUBCONSCIOUS MIND WORKS AND TELLS ME THAT. FOR EXAMPLE ON THE 7TH ITEM OF MY EXPLANATION ABOUT 'CARS CAN BE MOVED BY EOLIC ENERGY', I USED THE WORD 'PREJUDICE'. AS YOU ARE THE OWNER OF THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE, YOU PROBABLY HAVE NOT UNDERSTOOD WHAT I WAS WANTING TO SAY. NOT TO PROLONG SO MUCH, THAT WORD MUST BE CHANGED TO 'DAMAGE'.
