Default 2000 heritage project turned vicla build

Just saying hello and figured I'd share what ive been working on. Bought this 2000 Heritage needing some love and work. Ive always wanted one and got a killer deal. Heres a quick before and after. Left side is when i brought her home about 2 weeks ago, right side, in black, is a few nights ago. Plans to come are apes, duals, and whatever I can do to make if my own without spending money in catalogs haha. Love this forum so far! Tons of bikes on here that are making me want to get a second job...

That's nice and all... but I'd rather hear about that Delmont 88. Is that yours?!?!

(Why yes... I did go snooping though your photobucket)

haha, i guess I should have been more specific BIGGER APES. The bike came with some extra ugly occ looking fat drag bars and I just ended up finding those mini apes in a buddys garage. klf33, youre bike is ****ing killer man. Its honest to god the first softail in that style ive ever liked, and I like it ALOT.

Suntower, yes, that car and a few others in that account are or were mine. Anything youd like to know, im more than willing to share. 70s lowriders are my passion.

Thanks for the feedback though fellas

Wow. I havent been on here for months. Its cold in St. Louis today, so im jockeying the internet, haha.

Just a quick update on the bike. Its currently getting blown apart for bodywork on the tins, filling a lot of factory trim holes, and paint.

Heres a few pictures from the last few months. Hope everyone had a great New Year!
