      Greetings!

      I just obtained one of his sidecars, I am restoring it to race in the Vintage classes…
      And I would love to find more History on this rig…

      The only pic I have of it racing, it has a #25 plate (which was unknown until after it was bought) and I believe it was then powered by a Triumph triple.

      Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Derek is a couple of years older than me… it he’s still around I would be in your debt to be able to meet him. My background is Solo, F1 and F2… and Driving 4 wheels for Ford Werk in the 70′s.
