Yep. Same one. Here's the video of it's first movement under it's own power not long after we got the engine going:

Since then it's gone 30,000 miles on the road including Route 66, Pike's Peak, Death Valley, and probably about 15 miles a day just joy riding. What a joy. But, really, part of the greatest joy was the year I spent working on "Old Henry" with my 15 year old son shown in the video behind the wheel. When we were done I said more than once that if we just ran the car into the lake it would have been all worth it just to have that experience with my son. He was the last of my 10 children and I tried to have that same kind of meaningful experience with each of the 10.
