I found a used car that the owner says was built in China. It's not real old and I can't find any ID on it. Is anyone familiar with these??? Kind of a Ural looking thing. Thx for any help.

Most likely a Chang Jiang sidecar which is a copy of Ural or near like Dnepr. Put Chang Jiang in your browser there is an abundance of information online.

There are several companies in China that make these, all claim to be the only one. We have imported some that the quality was near "OK" others that were just pain junk. We installed one on a BMW that the owner had picked up used and brought it to us. About a week latter he crashed as the sidecar frame failed. Turned out that the factory had welded it up very poorly and then covered the welds with bondo an painted over every thing so you could not tell. In any event we often can help with mounting hardware, we have a few of the cast wheels still in stock if you want to change from wire wheels.
