Car? If you mean the the green thing with the red fairing, that's a 2007 Ural Gear Up side car rig from Russia. More fun than you are legally allowed to have and, like a Solex, a butt simple machine.

I had a Bitsa VeloSoleX that was part early 1960's frame and 3800 engine that I found at a garage sale in boxes for $60. It was fun, they do get nearly 200 MPG. It was my favorite garage sale shopper, slow little bike for a lazy summer weekends cruising backstreets and alleys for estate and yard sales.

Mufflers. See the round black things next to the front wheels?

Them's mufflers. Believe or not but the exhaust pipe is 6mm. Header pipe is 13mm. My understanding is that the Hungarian Impex muffler is prized for it's 16mm header pipe and 8mm exhaust. All I know is that purchasing and importing an Impex would cost more than I spent on the bikes.



BTW I have an extra Impex muffler..
