Motorized prewar Indian simplex? What is it??

Riding my '39 Silver King 26X
Saw this odd "Indian" at a friend's place recently. What is it? Looks a bit like a simplex, but not completely. Is it a prop maybe? Have a look at the photos and tell me your thoughts? The seat is obviously wrong, looks like a 60s spaceliner seat, but the rest...?

The plaque on the engine says Indian but hard to see in the photo. The springs over the truss rods are a riot too.
