According to the receipt on file (dated 23rd April 1995 when it was bought from Peter Kilner) this racing 'kneeler' outfit is believed to have been built by Owen Greenwood as a replica of the one he was racing. A motorcycle engineer from Leicestershire, Greenwood began his racing career on solos before switching to three wheels in the mid-1950s. One of the UK's foremost sidecar racers, he is best remembered for his controversial rule-busting Mini-based trike, which beat all comers for a couple of seasons in the mid-1960s before the authorities banned it. This Triumph Bonneville-engined kneeler was campaigned during the late 1960s/early 1970s by Bill Mumford of Romford, with sponsorship by Barking Brassware. A relatively inexpensive entry into the world of classic/historic sidecar racing.
