Another Steve Walker Close Enough Engineering car.





Powered by a '58 Veloce engine. 


Here's a link to the story of the car's creation by Steve Walker on the Old Car Nut Book site

  2. That's really strange. Was it just bolted to the side of the frame? Did it have its own wheel (touching the ground)? Wouldn't that throw the weight over to the one side like crazy, with a passenger? Was the sidecar removable? That's got to be one of the oddest things I've ever seen.

    1. Yes, it has its own wheel. I don't know if it is removable. I just added a link to the story of the car by the builder. He took it to an Alfa Culb track day at SIR once. He spun it when he tried to give someone a ride in the side at race speed due to the odd handling sidecars introduce.

    2. I don't know 'nuthin and I don't want to sound like I do but that doesn't surprise me in the least.
