Ok I have picked up the sidecar. It is supposedly a Spirit America. From the research so far it appears to be the protoype that California sidecar created the Friendship.
It is made of very thick ABS black plastic.. Can you say heavy? It has no cracks and supposedly has been being kicked around in back of garage for years. the frame has had the old swing arm and wheel removed. I plan on using a 500# torsion bar style swing arm. I am then gonna install a 12 inch style spoked trailer wheel and put a chrome wheel cover on it... Custom made cover of course.
I am going to weld in a solid 1/4 thick steel plate in the very middle. I then use this to mount the new torsion swingarm and also mount the hack down to the frame in eight points instead of the four it originally had. This way i know it will be more secure.
This all will be mounted to the GL1100A I am currently bringing back to life.
I am looking for mounts for the frame to body. I am willing to swap parts or cash. If parts it will be swap plus free shipping.
Tell me what ya all think. This is the way I can see that I can get back to riding, and look cool at it..
