This Indian Heritage is a transformation of a 2000 Heritage Softail into a cool lowrider with attitude. Features flared fenders, copper-plated parts, a nacelle headlight cowling, smooth rear tail light, straight fishtail exhaust pipes, and hand-made ostrich leather accessories.
“Old Blue” was a challenging full restoration, starting with a customer’s dream and a box of parts. We meticulously recreated the look of a classic 1942 Harley-Davidson®, transforming a collection of pieces into a stunning vintage motorcycle. Our patience and dedication paid off, resulting in a timeless machine that’s a testament to the enduring legacy of Harley-Davidson®.
