Greetings Collectors.
Can anyone give me information about this CKO racing sidecar toy? It was made in Germany but that's all I know.
The sidecar body seems designed to flip up and there is something missing - probably the passenger! Perhaps he fell out on the previous lap.
The girder front forks, rigid rear end and pudding basin helmet are clues.
There might be something missing from behind the rider. There seems to be space there and a bracket and slots for tabs that would locate something - perhaps a rear mudguard (fender). The front wheel turns.
I don't have a key so I don't know if it works. It looks like it was wound up from underneath. Perhaps there should be a start lever behind the rider?
Thanks.

That is a great Toy. Is the the 370 Tourist model .Missing belly pan from sidecar and passenger. Also a rod went from motorcycle into sidecar passenger's back, and most likely when wound gave passenger some action simulating racing movement. Should be a key wind mechanism. Very desirable toy and still great display and monetary value.
This is truly an amazing toy! Absolutely love it!
I think you are very lucky to have found this even without the passenger!! That must be rare!
