Thanks all. Helps to hear that we're not just blinded by love.
She will go to Shenandoah Harley on Monday, see what I can find out on history from them and keep my fingers crossed it was put away well.

Will keep you posted.

Why take it to the dealership? Get a service and parts manual. You can do the basics yourself. Lots of folks here willing to help.

Barring that find a good Indie you can trust, really trust that knows old iron.

Any chance anyone has a recommendation for a good indie shop in the central Virginia area?

The Google machine isn't popping out many answers....

Come on!!!!!!!!! Someone help this member out. He's got a way cool machine that is very close to corrector. Dealer can't do squat for him.

Damn...wish you were West Coast. We would have it up on my lift table and have it checked out in quick time. You have a very nice piece of history there.

Not sure what you paid for it but Genny Shovels have their own unique market. Adding a hack increases value. Out here on the West Coast you have a 12K piece of history.

Nice find and hope you have a long life with it. Enjoy

Great find and super great price. If that rig is original (or mostly) you stole it.
Anything you have to do to get it up and running will not effect the originality of it.
