      Screw that! You got the start of one hell of a faring there. Cut the floor out and put that over top of the bike and you can ride all year long in Alaska!

                Hi Ken,
                most likely it's a Busmar Triple Adult.
                The tug seems to be an early Goldwing, from when 'wings still looked like bikes instead of like Winnebagos.

                  So it's a kind of evolution! Back then, the sidecar looked like a Winnebago!

                    Neat, but that thing should really be pulled behind it and not on the side of it. My kids would love that thing.
