My M715 is a tale as old as time.... Boy sees truck in a movie at an early age, boy falls in love with truck, boy see truck in another movie and 30 years later see the truck at a friends place, chews on buying said truck for 2 years, then pulls the trigger and picks it up on a Christmas eve..
The first movie was "Splash" in 1984 (which also introduced funny feelings about Daryl Hannah)

And the second movie was "Flatliners" in 1990.

Coincidentally, thats almost what mine looked like when I saw it at @Csm Davis place...

This began a tale that has stretched over the last 3 years.

My full build thread IS HERE.

Long story short, I've spent many hours working on her, painting her, tearing into engines, mounting tires and searching endlessly for canvas, bows, pioneer tools and other goodies for her.

I think Kevin Bacon and Keifer Sutherland would approve...

This month we introduce our 45 cui Harley Davidson Flathead.
Like the civilian fenders there are some other non military parts used.
Converted from 6V to 12 V , equipped with a small disc brake on the springer fork.
But the original Linkert carb works well. :) :cool:
