So I was at my wife's Aunt's house yesterday and her Uncle wanted to share his current project, restoring his old monkey bike and sidecar he and his father used to race. He's restoring it to give to him.

This is them racing at Ascot.

All polished up for rebuilding.

Which leads me a question. Anybody know an aluminum welder that can not only put this fun back together but fab a piece for the fin missing?

I'm sure my welder could do it. Not sure where you or the part are located. We are in Valencia,Ca.

I've watched those races years ago on TV when there were only 5 channels, they were cool to see, crazy fun.

I know two very good welders.

Welding cast aluminum sucks, but either of them could weld your asshole shut if you can stand the pain.
