THE GOW JOB
|
| |
Scrounging through my parts, I discovered
some nice things, I had a NOS WLA frame that Buchannan had raked
to 34 degrees for me, some years before. He had also extended a
new WLA springer to XA dimensions. Digging deeper, I uncovered
a fresh WLD engine and a fresh WL tranny, both completely built
with NOS parts. The cylinders were bored .125 over and fitted
with Indian Scout pistons. I bought some PM wire wheels and
brakes, bolted it all together, and I had a brand new WLD. The
only used parts were a 1936 EL oil bag, a pair of WR gas tanks
and a Hummer seat. So, in the year 2001 I had a “new” 1939 WLD,
that almost duplicated my1951 “Cement Mixer”.
