Hello Mart,

I have sent some photos to the e-mail address you gave me a couple of weeks ago. Did you receive them?

Hello again Sam,

You have confirmed that the chassis I have is not the correct one. No worries, as I have a Watsonian chassis already fitted to the BSA M21, to which I have fitted a braked hub (a BSA front 7" hub), so I will, once the Gemini body is sorted out, be fitting it to that chassis.

Hello Sam,

It will be hauled by a BSA M21.
Thanks, Pete

I know this is nothing whatsoever to do with racing, but has anyone any pictures of the range of Gemini sidecars that were built by Fred Yates in the 70's and 80's? I am getting a very tatty child/adult Gemini, and any pictures/info would help in the restoration of this 'chair.
Well done to ...
