That would allow me to do a full tank repaint. Do you want to part with them?

The early '80's was all screwed up for H-D , I would walk to a MoCo partsman and he would cross his fingers , you had better carry something in with you to match up I still have my '81 Sportster that came with a Super Glide gas tank and the ser# that H-D has no record of ever being made , My '80 Tour Glide is pretty much the same way The 1st year for the 1340 -- 1980 -- right , 1200 and 1340 are still found on '78 , '79 , '80;s there was nothing set in stone in that era

Harley-Davidson-Willie-G-Special-FXDWG-Wide-Glide 1984 I have one a guy wants to sell. It will need restore though it runs fantastic. I can not find any to price it out. I was hoping you may be able to point me in the right direction.

Thanks

Dave

Hello steetdog36 are you still looking for Parts for your FXDG ? or have you completed your restoration ? do you need a fender medallion 99017-83, if so i have a reproduction of one available, because this post is a little older just thought i would ask, if you like you can check out my post on "1983 FXDG refurbish thread " i spent almost 2 years redoing my FXWG into a FXDG replica, i had a lot of fun doing it & am now enjoying the finished build,any way would be nice to hear from you either way,ok take care , Troy : )
