Saw these two on line today, about an hour from me. Im not interested in them but wondered if anyone knows what models they are and what they should look like originally?
During the 5 minutes I was interested in the show American Pickers - I was amazed at why these rust buckets were of value. I'm sure some of them are but silly me, I'd rather have an EVO.
The old timer I get my hay from (he's late 80's or early 90's if I remember right) said he bought himself a '37 Harley brand new. Put a slightly larger sprocket on it and drilled the breather hole in the heads slightly larger and said he raced a chick in a convertible one day and he reached 90 mph. Said he probably could have beat her with a little more miles on the road as he could hear that the car had pretty much topped out and he was catching up to her. He and I both agreed he screwed up getting rid of the bike in '44, heh.
