I remember paint jobs with lace incorporated in it -- mostly on peanut tanks. Back in 1970, I bought a rolling disaster 1950 Panhead chopper with a sketchy springer. That fork almost caused the former owner to get killed. I took off that garbage springer and used it for a mailbox post. That Franken-Pan had a Kelly Springfield car tire on the back and a ratty J.C. Whitney king/queen seat. The kid who owned it before me had arc welded a shift gate on the side of the banana gas tank. The tank leaked. I got that bike roadworthy and then sold it to a guy who just got back from Vietnam. He rode it to California where he lived with his gal until he died a few years back. Miss ya, Stan! Thanks, Throttle Addiction and Bobby Good Times! Great throwback Knuck! Build right. Ride safe! -- W
Here in Australia a knuckle is worth about $40k that chopper would be around $35 k .
"Wife wouldn't let him finish it". Time to get rid of the wife.
great bike but how is it a surviver but it was chopped and didn't survive its og look, just cus the frame, paint the same?. dont get that but still a bad ass bike!
My guess is since it was built into chopper in the 70s and the fact that nothing really has changed on it since then and for the fact it didn't go to the crusher or get left out to rot. I just recently picked up a Sportster chopper that's been sitting in the same shed since 98 was built probably early 70s if it wasn't in the shed like it was and would of been left out to nature i think it would definitely be to far gone to save but its survived being around this long
