Hey everyone. This is my '55 Windsor Deluxe. It was already converted to 8v when I bought it. I wont be doing a resto or anything expensive to this car, but I have done a good tune up, replaced the plugs and battery, built door panels, started a headliner, replaced an exhaust manifold, changed the oil pan gasket and plan on dropping it a couple inches. Its not for a purist, I like my cars my way. I also have 2 VWs completely torn down I am building into a Volksrod, a 4runner daily driver that is Off Road capable and a Harley Davidson 1200 Sporty I built into a mild bobber. Anyways, just wanted to say hi and get to know everyone.

- Chachi.

Cool car, watch for bulbs failing with 8v, really not required if everything is up to snuff.

2007 Sportster 1200 Low. Forward controls, shaved fork reflectors off, 16" Burley apes with internal wiring, Removed horn, Stage 1 Screaming Eagle pipes, Modified Mustang solo/double separates for a 3.1 gallon tank (seat now fits up onto the tank, really cool), Flipped mirrors, relocated front blinkers, thermostat dipstick, ride free gas cap.. ect.

Future plans: 2"tank raise, lay down license plate frame, possibly relocate speedometer to old horn location.

Not much else I really want to do to her but ride.

NICE ride, there!

What brand and size of tires are those?

Welcome aboard!

It's obviously your baby, now, but you might think about hopping it up, mechanically, so that it still LOOKS
stock...or has 3-deuces/dual quads/stiffened suspension, like a moonshiner-mobile...a vintage-looking hot rod----thanks
to those bad-ass looking tires that you've got on it, now.

Car looks mean, in black.
