Help with identification
Hi, I am writing from Great Britain, I have just bought sidecar shell with no chassis - just a body; despite some effort put into finding the maker of this piece of fiberglass, I still can't find the make, the name - I'd like to find out more about suspension, fittings - as I want to built it close to original, or, to avoid mistakes...
I remember that sidecar type in the mid 1970's. It was manufactured in or around the LA area and I've seen pictures of a few from back then. My Dad took pictures of one in the Oakland California in a used car lot around 1977 or 78. It was the same one that you have and it used a 12" trailer wheel and was mounted to some Japanese bike. If you need information on how to make a frame that would fit that body send me an email and I can help you out. If you or a friend can weld I can walk you through the steps; it's easier than you might think.

You have a Zephyr Sidecar. Here is a link to a web page about them and it shows the frame and a few mounts. http://floridasidecarproducts.com/vintage_sidecars
Thank You, I passed the link on to Adam. He really appreciated the information.
