I am selling my 1935 Swallow sidecar with the attached 1972 Triumph Trident.  The motorcycle has a blown engine but all the ancillary parts are there.  These are recent photos as the bike sites today in my barn.  Its well protected with no rust. Text me at 317-652-8081 for more information and photos as it appears that I am not allowed to attach files on this forum (?)

There is a requirement of 3 postings before pictures can be posted.

That's for new members.

So if you don't mind the process, the illiterate amongst us will get see to what you have.

In the meantime where are you situated and do you have a price in mind?

Bruce, I can tell by Vaugh's accent @vaugh-selveygmail-com that he is from Indiana, and most like in the Indianapolis area.

And Bruce, that '72 Triumph Trident he is selling with his sidecar is a RIGHT side shift bike, so it works well with you Downunder whackamoles.

Vaugh @vaugh-selveygmail-com, send ALL the pictures of your sidecar and bike to me, at midliferider@aol.com, and I will get them all posted on here immediately.

I rode a right shift royal Enfield of Dennis's a little while back.

The brain said stop for this roundabout but the right foot shifted up a gear.....

So Whackamole or not after 50 years of left foot change I am not in a hurry to try it.

There was a lovely Trident at the vintage coffee run this morning though. 

Took long enough to adapt to the reverse pattern crash box in the Fiat 509

@brstr Indeed.  I would like to get at least $4500 for everything.  I know that its pretty low for what I have but I have to do it.  Like Flying Monkey says, I am from Indiana...  Around the Indianapolis area.

@miles-ladue Thank you for posting.  Be happy to answer any questions from anyone.  the engine on the Trident is blown, that is why I ask so little.  Prior to that, it was in parade condition.
