The damn thing fell off a trailer last fall while heading to a Rally. Long story!

Nice.
I like the military-esque color motif. You should have like a pointy thing on the front of the sidecar so it looks like a turret mounted. |

You didnt see the M249 all metal air soft gun mounted on the sidecar? I need to take some pictures outside when its done so the pictures aren't so busy.

That would be a great photo. Bull dog in an army helmet with goggles on, maybe put a cigar in his mouth. But, hes at my brothers now. I got to house train him and then my brother gets to take over!

I just got the fog lights back from the powder coater. After I put them on I will take some pics. I didnt have time to make seat covers yet, go figure, but I might just leave them as is anyway.... |

I am so jealous of folks with this much talent. The first rendition was gorgeous. This re-modeled version borders on genius. Each time I look at the pictures I see some other detail.
Fabulous job!!! |

Thanks, Wish I had more time to work on it. I pretty much just threw it together. I used spray paint since I didnt want to shell out the money for a pro job on something that I use all the time. I think the most money I spent on this thing is the air soft GUN, but ya cant have a military scooter with out a GUN! I even recycled some floor rail rubber and riveted it to the tail end of the side car where the original crappy aluminum strips were!
thanks for editing my post.... Vegetable peeler? give me a friggin break. |

The coolest scoot and sidecar I've ever seen in my life.
How about the weird looks about the 50 cal. machine gun mounted to the sidecar? |
