Default 3 harley toppers

When cleaning out my late father's farm buildings I recently found 3 Toppers. I believe he was working on getting one put together that would run. He passed away 10 years ago and they have been sitting there since and probably a long time before that.
There is an orange, green and light blue Topper. I am still finding tubs of parts that belong to each. The frames, wheels, and bodies seem to be mostly there.
I like the look and idea of a Topper but do not know much about them. I would like to talk to Topper folks so I can figure out what to do with the Toppers.
How best to sell or maybe trying to continue what dad was working on--like what is involved with restoring one of them.

Any info appreciated

I'm not sure what part of Ohio you're in but here are 2 chapters of the AMCA (Antique Motorcycle Club of America)

Cool little pieces you have there. Can't tell you much about them. But I will say that you may want to edit your post and pull your contact info down. There's a lot of traffic threw here that's totally random from google searches. Never know who may grab that info.
