H-D SideCar 45LE1856 Reclaimed from a cow pasture in Juneau County Wisconsin335 viewsThis is a pictorial summary of my "restoration" of a 1945 H-D LE Sidecar that spent most of the last 40 years in a cow pasture in Wisconsin. It was retrieved from the pasture and spent some additional time in a dairy barn before I acquired it, so, yes, it is "Barn Fresh". My friend John HD hauled it to Davenport IA on Labor Day this year (2010), it took 3 guys and 6 beers to load it into my truck for the trip home to Arkansas. With the help of a big Kano KROIL, and lots of patience, it all came apart. Most of the iron was severely pitted so everything was either sand blasted or bead blasted. The big pieces were powder coated, smaller parts were painted with Rustoleum Appliance Epoxy (tough stuff), and about 95% of the original hardware was bead blasted and parkerized, and put back on. I bought new ball studs and nuts, thats about the only things I have replaced so far, everything else is original. Here is what I have accomplished so far.
