Dusting Sidecars

The sidecar firm was established in the 1930s or 1940s. Stan Mucha became the owner in 1999.

In no other country in the world are sidecars, and particularly the chassis, subjected to more severe or exacting conditions as those met with in Australasia. It was with a full realisation of these facts that Dusting craftsmen a quarter of a century ago set about building the first Dusting Sidecar.

That they were successful is now a matter of history. To-day thousands of Dusting Sidecars are giving trouble-free service and economical transport in every part of Australia and New Zealand.

This speaks volumes for the honest business methods and sound engineering policy laid down by the founder and present proprietor, Mr. H. C. Dusting, in those far-off days when sidecars and even motor-cycles were little more than a novelty.
