Yes it helps, lol. I just found one pic of it on the Vetter website:

But I still don't know if Craig Vetter made it for Harley Davidson. But I think that Elvis had one, lol. I wonder if it was in the parts catalogs from that era.
If you don't mind, I need a couple of pics of the backrest pad attached to it. I hope to fit a wrap around pad. I'll PM you my email.
I think that this trunk will look good with the bars around it and all the bars around and on top of my saddlebags.
Regards,

I don't think you'd care for the OE pad that would have gone on yours. You'd likely want to modify it if you had one. So, might as well go for a newer one. I used one of the two I had because I was going to make the same kind of Pak for my girl. She opted out and went with a chopped Pak.

Nice bike !!!!!!
It's a Shovel era King TourPak. Late 60's, early 70's. They had two. The one you have, and a smaller one. I have the smaller one. I've modified mine with a backrest pad, mini luggage rack and a couple aluminum plates so it would fit a newer '09 & up touring bike. The backrest pad on yours wasn't like the wrap-around style we have today. It was flat, kind of like a wide but slimmed down version of a chopped pak pad.
Here's a couple pics of mine, the smaller one. (mine also had the rails)
Hope that helps at least a little.

I found mine on ebay, NOS for $350. Mounted it using the factory quick release bracket. The backrest that we already had on the bike worked perfect! Showed it to our dealer and was told it was a late 60's-early 70's HD accessory as noted in a previous post. I contacted Craig Vetter and he did not make these, they just happened to be around at the same time his fairings were being sold by Harley.
