Re: Unknown Sidecar
Well I don't think it's a Shelbourne or a Windle, they have a top tube over the engine... It's a Yamaha YPVS Powervalve engine though...
Any idea who's wheels they are? They're pretty distinctive wheel centers...

Re: Unknown Sidecar
Well the main thing to check would be the integrity of the chassis, the tubes could be rusting from the inside with that age... Happened to my drivers outfit last year where the chassis nearly snapped in half... With that odd rear shock I'd possibly ask Louis Christian if he had a hand in it maybe...
Where are you wanting to race it?

Re: Unknown Sidecar
I'd put a lot of money on it being nothing to do with any of the more popular builders.
It could have been built by Vince Winstanley, didn't he build with the shocker on its side like that?
The wheels look like compomotive to me.
Come on Big Tim, you must know?

Re: Unknown Sidecar
Dont think it's one of Vince's.
If mine is anything to go by then Vince's shocks run underneath the swinging arm not suspended above. Only bike ive seen with a shock like that was an Asco F1.
