This, from Wikipedia I really liked...
"Staged gasifiers, where pyrolysis and gasification occur separately (instead of in the same reaction zone as was the case in e.g. the WWII gasifiers) can be engineered to produce essentially tar-free gas (<1 mg/m³)."
So, if it's engineered right, it's all go! I would love a car like that, still want a steam whistle on it though, just to piss off the neighbours. ...

The staged version is what I meant in refernce to an addition to your brick stove. Sounds like some filtering is in order, but I didn't find any specifics on that. I don't see an advantage to brick, and a disadvantage is no portability. An all metal multi-function outfit could go in the bed of a truck to run it, or in the yard to make charcoal or power a gas engine running a generator. You can use the electricity to power a siren to alert the neighbors to a coming steam whistle.
Here's another interesting video that refers to a FEMA design plan. If you search the YouTube site for 'wood gas', you find dozens if not hundreds of vids.
