Vintage Harley Davidson Flathead on S. Congress Ave

Posted on Apr 15, 2015Written by Ken Altes

It appears to be an early 1940s bike, likely 1200 cc. These flathead engines were used from the 1930s into the mid 1950s, while the more modern OHV engines were also available for the last ten years or so of its run. Awkwardly, it has an hand shift at left side of the gas tank and a pedal clutch.

Billy sent these pictures of his modified 1947 Ford. It has a “454 cu.in big block, 400 turbotrans, 10 bolt rear, black diamond interior from the 60’s.” Great looking car. He also sent this picture of his 1976 Harley FXE. Thank you Billy for sending these great photos — I’ll post interesting local cars, motorcycles or trucks our readers want to share — send them in.
