Description: Harley Davidson & Winter project


Here she is, the way I got her
1978 H-D Sportster...

the seat and stock sissy bar wasn't for me
sporting a stock 1974 seat


New Chrome headlight
The stock headlight had minor damage, so I thought chrome was the way to go.

I switched out the original for a chrome oil tank and finally found the seat I wanted to use.
Corbin Seat & Chrome Oil tank


Practically New Sheet metal
I definately wanted to go with a larger than stock gas tank and found this King tank, Tombstone tail light rear fender, and front fender. Here I have it in the 1st stage primer.

finally got the chance to get my sheet metal painted.
