Almost done with my 9 year restoration of a chopper basket case. She has a 1942 left side case, 1945 right side, 42 trans, 48 frame and the rest is all repo parts. I did get as much NOS hardware as I could find. This was a $2,000 mixed bag basket case I won off ebay. It had a raked frame, extended forks the engine and trans totally apart and came with not one nut or bolt. I was able to sell off the frame and front end and miss matched tanks and acquire some nicer pieces. I did every bit of work on it myself. Rebuilt the engine and trans and polished and painted everything. Ill be hopefully firing her up on Thanksgiving !
