Is this one going to be a single seat only? We are interested in your front fender correction solution. I have thought about some sort of a sector bracket, but have limited metals working skills.

I took some extra shots of the fix. Ill try and post those real soon. The metals to use are easily obtainable.

This build will have a 2 up I just ordered from mustang. With a back rest too. Thou this is for an 08. And the bike being a 93. Ill be able to make it fit.
I will however have to make an extension for my center console, so it will butt against the tip of the seat.

That is sweet and the Servi Car Retro Look is as nice as the Retro Sidecars I've seen on the forum lately. Great choice and keep us up on the build.

Looks real nice. Very curious how you're gonna fit 2 up or is the servi car part just pushed that far up temporarily?

The servi car section is actually made by hot rod trailers. which was bought out by Time Out Trailers.

Where you see it setting, Thats where it stays. I have to cut into the top to allow for the passenger. For now,... I'm figuring out the brackets that I will need to fabricate. To secure the body.
