Wow! Good info! Thanks for the detail. I had already pretty much convinced myself that I would not be re-using the tonneau. You helped cement that position. Appreciate the rundown!

Thank you Martin and TB. Your posts (and photos) are like gold to me. As I noted, info is scarce on these excellent sidecars. It's unfortunate that the company making them didn't survive after Craig Vetter sold off rights to this design. Thanks again!

Thanks to all. I've spent some time on the rig - mostly evenings - but still have ways to go. The car polished up nicely and paint can wait. I'm still sorting the Goldwing. Timing belts and carburetors. Let me tell you, pulling that right timing cover was no picnic. I've pulled the...

Thanks Mike. Good info. Never too much info for a pretty scarce rascal like this one.

Did some more digging and looked at LOTS of photos. I can see now that the master cylinder is, indeed, the Airheart "small displacement unit". I still need to know if it's upward or downward activated. If I had the pedal, it would probably be obvious. Either way, I won't order until I find a...

Hello Gents (and Ladies if present), My just-acquired Terraplane (07-100572) has a rotor, but no caliper or master cylinder. I see that the Airheart caliper used is still available. I would imagine that one of the master cylinders offered by Airheart is also what was used. Is it the small...

Thanks. I've actually seen a few photos of them on cafe tugs. If any sidecar can pull off that look, it's the Terraplane. I don't think it would look this odd:

I absolutely could not pass this up. Deep down, I have always wanted to run a hack and admire many of the rigs out on the road. But, they are pretty uncommon (not counting the ubiquitous Ural). A design that has always caught my eye is the old Vetter Terraplane. I didn't realize it, but less...

Thanks gentlemen. Pricey, but well worth it. I see he developed them to help avoid EXACTLY what I'm trying to avoid. Stress cracks emanating from holes.

Hey Brian! Thanks for the photo. (We're old pals over on the NGW site). Where can you buy the hardware you've shown above? That's the way I'm going to go with this! Are they Windjammer parts? (I'll look into it). Thanks again! Darrell

Well, new guy and the first of (hopefully) not too many questions. I have a windscreen on the way to replace the badly cracked one on a Terraplane I recently acquired. T he existing screen on mine is attached with numerous screws running around the base - in addition to what looks like a...
