Default new member and needing some help

Hey everyone hows it going, ive got a 1982 fxwg harley. I'm pretty young so i don't know much about the history of the bike, it is my dads bike but for his birthday i am going to fix it up and make it look real nice since he hasn't been able to do it. Like i said i don't know much about the bike but if anyone knows a little history of the bike please let me know. However, the main reason that i am leaving this message on here is i am looking for a emblem that goes on the front fender it says commemorative addition on it as i understand. Im not having any luck finding one or even finding some information on it. so if someone could help me out i would much appreciate it and im sure that my dad will go crazy if i can find it for him. Thanks

Great to see you involved in this project, you need to go to groups on MSN, look up Todds Harley Pics, I'm sure someone there will point you to everything you need for your project. Welcome to this site too.
