Oldest story in the book I'm sure, you find yourself in a sketchy garage with old parts and start throwing money around. I can't help myself. Anyway, I picked up an old split tank that was rattle canned red and have since started stripping it down. I'm not sure what I have exactly so if this looks familiar yo anyone I would appreciate some input.
That decal was originally used around 1936, and then again in '78-'79. I think Baka is right.
Is the tank really that short, or is it the angle in the pic?
Yeah I got an old Spurtster tank I am going to practice my paint skills on and set it in the garage as art. Its rusty as hell inside and not much I can do with that.
Thanks for the input guys. It looks like a knucklehead tank to me, I'm just not sure how to verify that. The next question is do I have the ***** to cut it up to make a tank for my dyna project if it is indeed a knuck tank. Anyway here's some more/better pics. Thanks again guys, I appreciate it.
