Great video, i just got my dad's 57 FLH panhead on the road this year, sat for over 40 years, i finally got it home and have worked on it 5 years by myself. A lot of work but i think it would make him proud .I've loved every bolt I've turned.

My daughter worked with me at 8,9,10, years old in my gunsmith shop she is amazing. Reminded me of her your doing a great thing teaching her. Only draw back is when she went on her first date guys pickup broke down she fixed a battery cable and off they went he was so embarrassed he never came back for another date. Live your videos.

The 55 is awesome and is in its original state. The 14 and the history lessons learning about the upgrades they did over the years is great information to hear. The biggest and best part of this video is having the little one with you on putting her back together, and learning to work with her hands. Nothing better than that brother. keep teaching them all the knowledge that has been passed to you to them and I bet they love every minute of it. I know we get caught up in the hustle of life, but you are probably seeing yourself when you were younger doing the same with your dad. Praises to you. Just simply awsome.

My dad used to talk about a friend in San Francisco named Frenchie, who would win bets by riding his bike around the block in reverse. This was in the late 40's or early 50's. No sidecar or coffin.

You always seem like a little kid on Christmas morning when you get a really rare & limited make Harley, and it's just so much fun watching you & you begin to try & reassemble it. I knew your dad from different bbike runs, swap meets & antique/classic racing meets, you & I have talked a few times as well, but I doubt that you'd remember me. I was just another guy who used to spend from late spring to mid-autumn working for different vendors & bike shops all over the country throughout the season, that was back in the days when a guy could still manage to make a living traveling around on his bike, and working for whoever would hire you for a spell & then head on down the road to the next one......

Back in the seventies, I had a 37 flathead, with a three speed and reverse. It was a sidecar Army bike, painted up in deep black and flames. The reverse was the notable issue, I'd back into a parking spot and folks would be in a circle watching me. I just love these old bikes. How about five kicks! Wow, that was easy! It sounds fantastic!
