To put in an outfit? Only ever seen one in a road race machine and that is / was owned by a Dutch (I think) pairing called Sam and Kobus (sorry dont know surnames) and now ridden by their wives / partners. Remember seeing a few in grass track racing back in the late eighties / early nineties before the onslaught of the Jap fours.

Oh well never mind. Should be an interesting bike though. Putting it in a featherbed type frame?

Yep ..... Were used by Badger Bell in Midlands area??? from memory then the were bought by an old racing friend down here Ian Rohan (used to do all Phil Collins promotional stuff) He passengered a British sidecar contender called Fred Pittock and by Christ did they get a bollock session with him on the bars !!! Good proper pukka racer.....
They were rebuilt by my old Sidecar grasstrack passenger who owns HM Racing in Orpington http://www.hmracing.co.uk/default.asp
They were put in a cupboard under the stairs and sat indoors for years..... Ian who owned them now lives in Spain....
They won quiet a few national grass meetings...
