Nice pics ! had a '50s pan also: 15 over springer front end. Loved that bike, except when it decided it didn't want to start, which was half the time !
Only have one picture left somewhere.... Didn't have the digital tech stuff like we do now. I'll bet I have a couple hundred pics of the old '56 Ford I'm working on !
Thanks for posting the pics.

That's funny stuff ! rebuilt my '71 FLH in the kitchen back when I lived in San Diego. Wife wasn't too happy, but what the hell: she didn't cook anyway !

Yeah, it would be nice to still have the panhead. By the time I sold it in 1975 it was a swing arm and only 6" over with a sportster front end, painted all black. My pan started really easy, now my 67 XLCH sporster w/SU carb was a different story. Man that thing was a bear to start.

Started on a 58 pan.....my first HD, ex cop bike. Was still black and white with the radio mounting plate on it when I got it. Loved that bike, had it for 12 years till it was ripped off, would probably still have it.
