1919F

I bought my first Harley shovelhead in 1984, my first panhead in 86 and my first knuckle in 87 but this was my first teens Harley, acquired in about 1991-2.  It took me about 18 months to finish her.
She needed so much doing and had so little decent paint that I did a full 'Repair and Repaint'.  
The metalwork was all cleaned and any new parts were patina-ed, then a repaint but with no 'ageing'.

I remember that the whole bike cost less than £4,000.  The seat was just $50; an original Messinger No. 2.
