Title: Calling Smudge - sidecar project
Post by: SteveC#222 on February 22, 2008, 10:07:04 PM
Smudge

The BMW/Dnepr convertion that my mate did that I told you about isn't on the web but in an old copy of the COC magazine.  As the print quality isn't brilliant, it won't scan or photocopy so if you want to Email me your address off forum on  stevecutler1960@hotmail.co.uk  I'll put it in the post for you if you can let me have it back when you've finished with it.

PS  have you seen these on Ebay?   28021803442
              or if you're really brave!    150216701946  (too expensive)

PPS  Re Wanted  it's a Dnepr MT11/16 gearbox you need (Ural boxes don't usually have reverse although some later Ural outfits did have reverse boxes) but a Ural box should work.

Brilliant stuff  ;D email on it's way  ;)
I saw the basket case Neval yes.. it does seem too much for a pile of bits! The questions that get asked always amaze me, there is a picture of the number plate and as we are all online to look at eblag we clearly can also look at the DVLA vehicle search, yet he gets asked "what year is it"  ??? ::)
But anyway... the other number didn't come up when I plugged it into eblag, what is it?

I meant to write Dnepr... but I obviously have been reading too much about Russian/Ukranian iron recently as my hands typed Ural  :-[ corrected now  :) you wouldn't happen to have an unwanted spare lying around..?  ;) ;D

Thanks again for the help/advice  :)

ahhh found it, yes the dnepr with the dodgy RAF paintjob... nothing a tin of matt green ir reflective couldn't cure though  ;D
Yes, I'm watching that, not that I can afford it just now  :D I take it blowing oil out the pushrod means rebuild is imminent!?

In case anyone is interested, I have a Dnepr left hand (UK) sidecar chassis and wheel for sale.

No chair or diagonal struts sorry, but all bits easily available from F2 Motorcycles
