Barn fresh 1925 Indian Chief motorcycle I bought a couple of years ago, it is missing a lot of parts but I do have the engine and transmission. Would love to find some of the missing parts so I can get it back on the road.
beautiful , are you going to restore it?
Hi,
Thanks for the nice compliment. I have already done a lot of clean up and detailing on it, the engine is being rebuilt this winter. I used a product that is supposed to stabilize old paint and it seems to have worked pretty well, the bike looks quite good now in my opinion. I want to preserve it as much as possible without repainting it since it has never been repainted.
Hi tombat,
your very welcome !!! I know I looks great of what you have done so far :) I agree if you can not repaint then you have gotten it made , I didn't know there was such a product that you are describing about stabilizing the old paint , that is awesome!! Good Luck tombat, Please show us the ending and final results when you done restoring this stunning bike !!! cant wait :)
Tombat, in Oley Pennsylvania every April they have a big gathering of people selling Indian parts> I go there every year and take pictures of the bikes.The Indians with the front leaf springs always caught my eye.
Ah! Rusty Gold!
Needs a wax job. Is my envy showing -- yet?
I like it just as is.
How about an update?
