dustycrusty Posted March 6, 2023 Share Posted March 6, 2023 A late 1930's Harley Davison "EL" a.k.a. a "Knucklehead", slightly customized in a style typical of the post WWII era. The "Beehive" taillight was used in 1939-'40 on the "EL", and those tank decals were used from 1936-'40. That would be a nice bike to have today! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dustycrusty Posted March 7, 2023 Share Posted March 7, 2023 Here's probably the world's most famous early post war Harley Davidson, done up in much the same way as "Wild"...Bills(?) bike, on the April 7, 1951 Saturday Evening Post cover. It is a slightly later (1949-) Hydra glide "FL" Pan Head that obviously belongs to a ne'er-do-well named "TEX". It gives a better look at that extra long, sheepskin covered "buddy seat" they both are fitted with. That magazine cover probably led more kids astray and cursed them to be perpetually broke than The Wild One, On Any Sunday or even Then Came Bronson! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
