I would recommend Bob Wark. He is in eastern Ohio and knows his stuff, especially classics. Name of the shop is The Warkshop. Good luck.
I spoke with Bob the other day. Nice guy. Seems knowledgeable. But I think I will give this a shot myself. I am a skilled tradesman and think I can get it right. My only concern was tow in and other angles. The info I've gathered seems to have what I need. I've built enough bikes and motors.
Fingers crossed!

A few pics of the build would be great.

Will do. Thanks for the info.
The sidecar came in today. Looks good. Just too high for me, so the first thing to do is lower it 4" before I start on mounts.
Came in monday. My bike is so low to the ground that I have to drop the car 8". Here's a mock up of roughly how it will sit.
Looks good but I hope you've got strong shoulder muscles with those handlebars I think your going to need them. I've got the service tool to take the cam wheels off the shafts if you get stuck, just pop round.
