you certainly like a challenge.
Looks like it would fall apart if you tried to move it. Didn't the army use something like that in the first world war?

Well...didn't conversions like this happen after the war when fuel was scarce but ex-WD bikes were plentiful? If it's not a home-made jobbie, it could be valuable.

I have a van and a pickup raleigh with a v twin 750, they did a 600 single that was very similar to that but I think they had handlebars but the later ones had a steering wheel
