No need to be embarrassed... I thought about it after and came to the conclusion that perhaps you hadn't read the thread all the way through. It is rather lengthy!!! So you've got a '16 J do ya? How far along is it or is it all done? A lot of us are picture hounds around here and it would be nice to have a look at your ride!!! Welcome to the forum by the way!!!

PICTURES!!!! Did some one say pictures I would love to see some

thanks for keeping an eye out for a tub for me, greatly appreciated! the other day when i made that post was my first day here as a member and hadn't yet read the whole thread, feel pretty emberassed right now, please pardon a green member,,,

I'm pretty sure the hack is a "National". If your putting together a rig for a J-Model wouldn't you be looking for an H-D tub? I believe the National and Rogers were put on a variety of makes. I'm curious as to why you would think it didn't belong on my Powerplus? Your trade options do sound intriguing but aren't compatible to anything in my stable at the moment. I think I'll hang on to the tub for now but would be glad to keep my eyes open for what your looking for and will post it if I see something. Best of Luck!!

Thanks Cory , I wont be doing the mating for a while but hope next year I will find the time !! which seems to go far too quickly these days !!! anyway , any ideas on the make , I bought this sidecar from a dealer of American bikes in England about 25 - 30 years ago , was going to fit it on my 1918 Harley but never got round to it but now I have a 1916 Excelsior that it will look terrific on as both are similar patination , hope I can put pics on here . http://lh6.ggpht.com/_6fq-xZ_IQSA/TN...20-%20Copy.JPG

Ken!!! Good to see you speaking up again! Butt on in all you want! Got any pics of your elusive sidecar? I'm really thrilled to have the ol' hack it needs some work and parts but I'm confident it will roll eventually...... Now.... Clyde's pics were just working not too long ago.... I can't view 'em either.

Also I have an early American sidecar that's been in my garage for about 25 years , I also need advice as to manufacturer , similar to Cory's but very noticeably has just the one 1/4 leaf spring at the front in the middle and 'C' springs at the rear , can I butt in on this thread with it or start a new one?? the clamps are same as on Cory’s , which I have seen on an Excelsior for sale in Holland , I want to attach the sidecar to my 1916 Excelsior , will look great as both have similar patina !!!! many thanks for interesting thread , there's not enough info on early sidecars , also ?? was there a link between Golding and Dusting sidecars (of Australia) as the chassis look similar ??

Nice stash Tommo!!!

What we think is an early Henderson sidecar wheel as it is identical to one on a mates 1918 Henderson rig.
