Bmw? Sidecar and frame









mit eggen fur flivven de bahn ?  Somebody stop me or im gonna section this thing with a jigsaw and sawzall .
does anyone know what this is ? there is some conjecture it was a carnival ride car. the only thing that I can find to support this idea is the modification done to the mounting. as I am unfamiliar with sidecars I have no valid opinion really. What I can say is everything else seems to indicate a motor cycle sidecar. The plug on the side operates the lighting independently and the built in battery box had terminals that were grounded common with the lighting. The seat belts were marked "Volvo" .The frame is a work of art . very few elements are square or parallel  to each other. about that carnival ride  thing   -usually rides have garish paint jobs (lots of glitter), extra lights - reflectors   and easy access to seats
