Give us a clue - is it metal or fibreglass ?
Which country was it found in ?

Are there any threads or bolts anywhere on it, that would give a clue if its metric or whitworth or ??

Cheers.

Sidecar is a metal. There are not threads and bolts. I find it in Czech Republic. Year of production should be to 1945.

A magazine to hand shows a Maico scooter with styling rather like your sidecar.
Said to be 1954. Will see if can get a scan or pic.

I think it will not be on a scooter because it is larger.

A quick google brings up a sidecar maker in Czech Republic even to this day.
"The sidecar is still manufactured in the Czech Republic by Velorexport, the successor to Velorex."

Perhaps contact them and see if they can help ?
If its not their product, they may know of the maker.
