There is a wee bit of a story behind this bike. My dad bought it about 5 years ago as a project for him in his retirement. We found it in the back of a gun shop and picked it up, complete (minus the speedo), for 2 grand. A couple years went and Dad didn’t have the time for the bike and I wanted to keep it around, so 2 grand later it was in my garage.

I got this far with it when I ran out of time. So today it got moved in to dad’s barn while we finish his plane rebuild. Once that is done, and winter settles in for real, we now have a nice father / son restoration project to get us through the winter. I’m looking forward to the build.
