Stan, ever seen or heard of Walnecks Cycle Trader. I know he's got online and can do a Google on Walnecks. I've been there before (online), and didn't care all that much for it, but his cycle trader magazine... you can piece together...WL's, WD's, JD's, Indian (the real ones, not those a couple/few years ago), British, even Japan. That guy Walneck (Buzz) though, a strange charactor (met him). Great magazine for hard to find parts. A friend of mine got a new set of jugs for his 45" WLD that were still wrapped in the original paper in the original boxes (194?). Did a phone repair a couple of years ago at the then new Harley dealer in Crete, IL, and was greeted at the door by a Knuckle and couple of Pans, but there in the middle of the showroom floor was (might still be) a burgandy and tan Chief that looked as though it just came off of the assembly line. Beautifully mint. So I asked one of the guys what's the deal on it. The guy told me an old timer brought it in because the knee couldn't hardly take the kicker anymore and used it on a down payment on a Road King. A "down payment" on a Road King?!?!? That'd be the day (he got taken badly if you ask me). Anyway, he did say that the guy'd come in every couple of weeks and pretty much kick himself mentally for that. I'll bet he did, or maybe still does. First and only two-tone I'd seen. Burgandy and tan. Beautiful scooter. Pristine. Mark

This would make the whole engine rebuild job much easier-and much less expensive! I soon found however, that the #4 conrod bearing had disintegrated, taking with it chunks of the crankshaft journal.
