Odd looking thing, open top, looked as if it was 3 wheel lay out but did have 2 wheels at rear but were set in centre and looked as if were mounted either side of a swing arm/drive shaft, any idea what it could have been?

Grinnal Scorpion possibly ? Though I don't think they have double rear wheels, well not the trike version.

I remember many years ago a mini engined trike competing in the north of England, designed and raced by Owen Greenwood, it had double wheels at the back but were close enough together to be classed as one.

Cheers CT, Just googled it and that certainly looks like it, funny about the rear wheels though, could have sworn it had two almost side by side
