I had a 1933 big Flathead I restored it as close to factory as I could. I sold it when I got my first divorce for $8.500.00 in 1984 the same bike sold for $25.000 a few years back. My cousin did the paint and motor rebuild and he knew the bike and saw it at an antique bike sale in Lorain Ohio about 10 years ago. My first bike was a 1941 45ci Sport Solo that got totaled when a guy pulled out in front of me in 1970. I love the Flathead it is a great motors and easy to work on like a big lawn mower. Thanks for sharing Mike.

Cool engine. That bike is going to be pretty sweet I'm sure. Looking at your other rides it will be a nice addition to the family of Harley's. There are so many people out there who crack on Harley's and put them down it's annoying. Nothing wrong with Harley's at all in my book. I think it takes a special type of dude to own an old Harley. You have to get your hands dirty and love to tinker with things. I know I'm most happy when I'm working on something, fixing whatever it may be. I'm in my element. When I sold my 01 FLH this cat who came to check it out as soon as he walked up the drive from exiting his vehicle the first words out of his mouth were.... "At least it's not an AMF" .. I just looked at him for a few and said that's exactly why I'm selling this one to get an older machine which Happens to be an AMF. He got quiet and his grin was gone. If you know Harley's then you know the older bikes will leak to a certain extent that's just how they were. My 73 only leaks a bit from the breather tube otherwise my driveway is dry. But the old bikes are or get in your blood. They are works of art is how I look at them. Your new old machine will be your work of art in how you build it. Lots of pride and satisfaction come with your build. It will be cool to see the finished machine later on. I enjoy your vids and watch them frequently. I hope to build a bike before I get too old and decrepit and can't do what I enjoy anymore. Nothing I enjoy more than being In the Wind and listening to my shovel sing that sweet tune going down the road... Anyway I look forward to the rest of your vids. I've never seen a flathead I can dig it... Take care man , be safe in this time we are all in.... Peace brother... ✌️

Excited to see this bike come together. It's nice to see a guy who still appreciates a nice carb nowadays! You seem like a great guy, and I love the videos. Stay well, and have a good one Mike!

I will be watching this build with interest, as I am about to do something similar over the winter. Just a few hours of research and I am amazed at the HD resources available here in Australia.

I love the old flathead motors. Their simple, they work well, and they look really cool.

I quite interested to see what you do with the flathead engine. I like watching people like you and Tatro working on older Harleys. I appreciate the videos you make and look forward to them.

Maybe I’m crazy, but I love flatheads. I drive a flathead Ford V8 almost every day. Never had one in a bike, although I’ve always wanted one. The 80” flatties are COOL. I’m following this build for sure!

Cool.Thank You. I have a Merc Flathead in my 40 Pickup. Kinda fond of 'em myself.
