Default 87 FLTP.....the UGLY project

I guess I have to start a thread for the new project an 87 FLHTP that was laid down and smashed. Frame is straight, hell even the forks are still straight, everything else...not so much. The engine has got GREAT compression and to get it running on its own will be the first thing done after stripping most of it down.

It comes with a bunch of parts that he has been collecting for it too. More to come when she gets home.....now for a name????

Not bad...not bad, I'll put that on the list. Since she's older I want an older name, Mable, Hermione, Bessie, names like that. Her name will reveal itself.
