Title: My first Harley, back in 1971.
Post by: cdestuck on January 24, 2020, 05:00:34 PM: Well back in high school I was lucky enough to have my first HD. A 1951 flathead. Found it in some guys back yard as a basket case. Cost my 75 bucks. Did a amateur resto on it. Sadly I later sold it within a year to buy a Yamaha trail bike. Sold for 300 bucks. :(

Not a Harley but this 1939 Panther I had in 67 is one I wish I still had.

This is my pan/shovel in about 77.....
