1969 It's Unorfordox! - half motorcycle half racing car







English sidecar addict puts together a way-out three-wheeler powered by a four-cylinder Ford engine.

Photos:

-Levy's contraption is half motorcycle, half racing car. He built it to compete against another way-out machine based on Austin Mini.

-A 29-year old draftsman at the Ford plant in Dagenham, England, Levy works on and races Ford-ified three-wheeler in his spare time.

-Levy is never short of volunteers, mostly females, to ride sidecar. The co-rider shown here is 19 year old Jenny Berry, a secretary.

-Unorfordox is pushed to the starting line by the willing hands of spectators. It weighs 740 pounds, has an overall height of 26 inches.

-Top, the 1300cc Ford-Cosworth engine was completely reworked by owner. It features a set of dual carburetors. Above, frame is made of channel and tubular steel. Left, Jenny Berry is a little apprehensive before taking her very first ride on machine.

-Levy is never shor of volunteers to co-drive Unorfordox, and he makes it a point to always use birds

-Levy shows his new co-rider how to shift weight in turns. So far the machine has cost him $1680, exclusive of his own labor.
