"The 1976 Shovel"

Pics below will open larger.Just click on them!

With everything ready to go the bottom ends in first. Got some shocks, front forks and swingarm on and moving ahead.

Some of the powdered parts are back so I can work on getting them ready to install.

Assembly moving along with the Trans, oil tank etc in. Just need to put the rocker boxes together and put them on the heads and torque everything down.

Ah now thats what I was looking for. Nice black rockers to set things off. Got the front headlight cowling on and added small Bullet lights for signals. No need for the big driving light bar on this one...it will go on the 77 thats in the works.

I have the pushrod tube centers blacked out as well to add another small touch to her. S&S super "E" for fuel, Crane Single Fire ignition for spark, Andrews BH Cam, Jims Breather inside. Stainless Steel braided oil lines and an all important oil pressure gauge. Never trusted the idiot lights for oil pressure..ha ha.

Its all in the details......
