Thanks for the post. I can almost smell that old engine smell. I'm not a HD fanboy, but who wouldn't want to own that.

One of my coworkers inherited a 51-53 panhead from his father. It looked a lot like that except red. After countless attempts to get it to stop leaking oil or fuel, he gave up. Now he's faced with the prospect of spending real money on the thing and taking it to a specialist.

Looks like it's mostly there too for a restoration.

Yep Dave. There IS somethin' extra special about original unrestored runners, isn't there! I think you're right.
Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)
