It will need a mechanism to actuate it on and off the tire and it could not be easily moun...

Re: Clarissa - The 2 Door T3

Morgan Super 3

During idle moments I browse eBay, Car and Classic etc seeing what's around in the 3 wheeler world (I know, I should get a life) and came across a couple of ads for the Morgan Super 3.
