A little over 4 years ago my grandpaw passed away due to liver cancer,and the one thing he left to me is a 1978 FLH but its a basket case and its literally tore completely down.Its been in milk crates for almost 17 years (he tore it down to do a ground up rebuild about the time i was born) and i have no idea where to start.I took inventory to see what i had and found out alot of shits missing (trans case,tanks,fenders,shocks,and alot of other misc parts).I finally got somewhat of a steady income so im ready to get started on it this winter,and im really leaning to a Frisco/Bobber style bike,anybody have any suggestions or tips?

First youre gonna need to decide on the frame you wanna go with .The internet will be your best freind on this one bro. Alot of great builders here who can help ya out tons . Get a manual for the shovel and start to wrenching her together . Good luck and happy wrenching ! -

First things first ill be sure to get a manual,and the bolt-on hard tail does look good but before i spend 500$ for one ill try some solid struts to see if i can handle a rigid,my sportster's still a softie and its a little rough to me (maybe because im used to dirt bikes).Anybody know of some good engine builders in or around AL?Comment
