Over a span of almost 60 years, Matchbox produced only 5 types of metal motorcycle sidecars: Sidecars from Triumph, Lambretta, Harley Davidson (2 models), and Sunbeam. If we consider only vehicles in the Yesteryear group, then only sidecars would be produced. One such type is the 1914 Sunbeam Sidecar.
In 1912, Sunbeam began producing its first motorcycles, utilizing a single-cylinder engine of 347 cc with a power output of 2.75 horsepower, designed by John Greenwood. The production of the sidecar commenced in 1914.
The 1914 Sunbeam Sidecar was manufactured in three versions, each featuring different chrome colors. The seats in the sidecar came in black, light green, and dark green. For this particular car, the seats are dark green. Despite being 59 years old, it is in good condition with no broken parts, removable rubber wheels, metal spokes, and a metal underbelly. All parts are metal, except for the driver's saddle and the seat in the sidecar, which are chrome-colored. See more
