Some interesting postings on this thread.
I like the sports car thing, like a grown pedal car  ;D

I just wanted to add this pic:



Lambretta S1 with Bambini on the left, and Vespa P2 with Squire on the right.
Tubular mounting to the Lambretta frame on the Bambini meant I couldn't safely get the wheel up as well as the flat steel plate mounting of the Squire onto the Vespa.

Big Al,
Still interested in that Bambox you mentioned.
Did you get my PM????

I finally came across the picture of my Friend Tony at the old age of 17 (in 1975) with his Triumph Spitfire 650 and side car made from an aeroplane fuel drop tank.
It fell off once, skidding into the churchyard complete with passenger.  At 17 you are still learning about how to attach things securely.
