Re: Identifying a 1956 Hydra Glide
I have no idea what shipping costs are from US to Europe but it would seem to me that you could find a much better restoration candidate in the States and have it shipped for less. I'd try to find one that hasn't been cut up like that one. Just my $.02.

Re: Identifying a 1956 Hydra Glide
Thanks to all for the help.
I will keep looking further.
Maybe i need to make another trip to the us but this time just for travelling around looking for a good restauration candidate.
I have a friend up there in Canada.
So if anyone knows a good adress up there just let me know.
Although if you know a good adress in the US where I could look online.

Wise choice, Johndoe.
Perhaps if you went to one of the major AMCA swap meets, such as Davenport, Wauseon, or Oley.
There is a European meet as well; http://www.amca-europe.eu/
There are usually a lot of good motorcycles for sale at the swap meets, but you should educate yourself before you make any purchase, of course.
