George, I saw your post on facebook as well as Benjamins responses. I agree.... The correct wheel would be the same as the Henderson, 20-27, no brake which was also the same as Big X and Super X for those years. The Henderson and X brochures made a big deal out of this interchangeability. Also the correct Henderson, X profile fender blanks are available from Vintage Steel in Australia. Look in the K model and early Deluxe sales brochures for more detail. Here is a link to the Excelsior Autocycle facebook page, Kieth Wissell just put one together on a 34 X, same sidecar as Deluxe. May want to contact him, I think he may be working on another one. https://www.facebook.com/photo? fbid=3229477900674467&set=pcb.10159794966134525 ----- ORIGINAL MESSAGE FOLLOWS ----- Well, from posting this on the AMCCA FB page, I've found that it's a "floater" sidecar designed in Australia, but built under license by Henderson from 20-23. Apparently an early Indian Chief, Scout or Super-X front wheel will fit as will a Deluxe or KJ front wheel. If there's anybody that has one of these that they would consider parting with or knows where I can get one, please let me know. Thanks ............... George ----- ORIGINAL MESSAGE FOLLOWS ----- Hi, The owner of the 1922 Deluxe that's nearly road ready has produced most of a sidecar that he's like to get refurbished enough to be road worthy and installed. I have looked all over the web and the only picture I can find of this chassis is one from the Barber Museum, but with no info about it. Can anyone identify it's manufacturer? Also, will be looking for an original (hopefully) wheel w/ axle and fender. Any help on any of the above would be appreciated, George Vancouver BC https://i.postimg.cc/x8KvL0zG/henderson-sidecar-1.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/52tz25nS/henderson-sidecar-2.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/mkXbX9CT/2015-07-25-Barber-Museum-ride- Henderson-1923-De-Luxe-with-sidecar-front.jpg |
