Big Red Beast

I came across the wonderful machine neatly parked with the owner nowhere in sight.


I can tell you very little about it
The registration number begins V8 so I assume it has a V8 engine to replace the motorbike engine.
It has Cadillac 5.0 across the engine, suggesting it is a 5 litre Cadillac engine.


Another open-mouthed looker - on said that the 5.0 badge was from a Ford Mustang (You have to be so knowledgeable to recognise that!)


There is usually quite a bit of information freely available on the Government vehicle website and this confirmed the word Cadillac and a 4565 cc engine, but little other information of use.


The vehicle has handlebars but  there is a linkage system to the other front wheel!

Come on experts, please give your opinions!
