American Spirit, Spirit Eagles and similar styles
How many of you have this type of sidecar?
I sure do. I believe I'm going to do some frame work. Befor I remount it. I need a new shock & wheel because of storage discoloration (rust)Rudy
We have a 1977 Spirit of America Eagle
that we are in the process of restoring, we have quite a few restoration videos posted at ( www.sidecarsavannah.com ), its been a fun little project
please let me know if you have any questions
We had one in 1978, our first sidecar. My wife hated it as all she could see from the car was my right kneecap and on the right side all she saw were tailpipes. When it rained, water came up the pretty flaired fender and into the sidecar. Then went to a new 111974 Velorex 560, one of the last ones sold, then changed continued on , having had a total of 11 sidecars in 30 years. Doug
Where on earth is the manufacturers serial number label placed on the cars?
I have yet to find the darn thing!
the only # i know of....
There is / should be a sticker ( that is actually under the last coat of fiberglass ) on the inside of the car that has a # on it mine was a 4 digit # 2118, other than that i havent seen anything else, and i've been over this car with a fine tooth comb....i'll try to post a pic of it on here to show you, if i cant post it, give me your e-mail and i'll send it to you

I need to know exactly where inside the car the label is located, like under the seat, on the side, left or right, up under the front lip or back lip, on the bottom or on the top....thanks....
sorry, i was out of commission for a couple days
the tag on mine was behind the seat ( i attached a pic for you to see )
its the white tag, between the 2 frame bolts
Thanks so much for the picture....that is exactly what I needed, they all are probably in the same place, in mine, that area is covered by a support board the previous owner placed in the car, although I had that removed to work on it there was no label in sight, the label was probably painted over at some time, I'll attack that place with some solvent and see if I can pick it up....
thanks again...appreciate the picture and info....
