Some time ago now there was a nice low trike with a nice box type thing on the back that sort of had a boogie seat set up, silver it was with orange and red strips, long forks, looked very different back then sort of old 50s car meets bike/trike. It was in BSH when there was nothing else to read. Anyone have any pics of it

trying to design a new trike for myself to give me something to do and a few ideas are floating in my head but I need to look at some pics for reference and inspiration.

Thanks

the back end of that blue trike looks like a ford 1932 roadster, narrowed a little.

That trike was built by Trike Paul, and used a Mini engine and Superdream forks, as I remember. He sold it about a year ago.

It was actually called 'Posh Trike' because Trike Paul's other conveyance is the infamous Stormin' Norman rat trike that he's now had for nearly twenty years and is officially a National Treasure.
