Default Springer/Deluxe

Anyone considered or seen pix of a springer front end on a Deluxe. Pix or links greatly appreciated.

I think it would be cool too, it would be even better if you used some brass dogbone risers and maybe added some brass accents to the springer.

Never mind. I was asleep that day. Thought he said deluxe front end on a springer. Duh.
Actually, just put whitewalls on and change the exhaust, that would get you close. Maybe someone can photoshop a picture?
